openssh unix dev - Feb 2003 - [Bug 484] New: name space collision - log function

http://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=484

           Summary: name space collision - log function
           Product: Portable OpenSSH
           Version: 3.5p1
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: sshd
        AssignedTo: openssh-unix-dev at mindrot.org
        ReportedBy: rusr at cup.hp.com


The function log() (described in log.h) causes a name space collision with the
math library function log(3m). If any library that is linked with ssh (or any
component) should happen to call the math library log() function, problems will
arise.

For my own temporary workaround, I changed the name in log.h from log() to
ssh_log() and added this statement at the end of log.h:

#define log ssh_log
