I can't update this revision without creating a new one apparently. So I'll paste it.

I tried. Travis apparently has a 50-minute limit on tests. It terminates the build.

Would it be possible to make Travis pre-generate and cache a development environment where the libraries have been downloaded and built? This doesn't need to be done each time. The rest of the build process will take less than 50 minutes. At first glance this part of the documentation would be the way to go.

but it would be better to figure out how to make macOS work

I think Itms has the best overview about our CI and such things.

Based on @wraitii 's comment in this forum thread, I've removed the osx test from the PR on GitHub.

I tested this patch using Travis..

I applied D1582 and then this patch (@s0600204 said it's dependent on D1582) and I got a complete build on Slackware64-current with gcc 8.2

After reading the comments, I don't really understand what I should do next, if anything. Sounds like you want to fix this with another method, and need to discuss the best approach? I know it's low priority but just thought I'd touch base in case there's anything else I could do with it at the present time.

I tested this patch and added my results to the ticket.
