           Summary: Make compilation with -Wshadow less noisy
           Product: cairo
           Version: 1.0.0
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P2
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: cworth at cworth.org
        ReportedBy: yeti at physics.muni.cz
         QAContact: cairo-bugs at cairographics.org


cairo.h uses y0 and y1 (the names of standard math.h Bessel functions) as
function prototype argument names in several places, making gcc -Wshadow very
noisy and practically unusable for compilation of programs that use Cairo.  I'm
attaching a patch that fixes that.

It is in fact a gcc problem, see
http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=529, but even though it's fixed no
version of gcc with the fix has been released yet.
