lib: fix clang build
Long story short, fix build on recent (3.2+) clang. The long story for posterity follows. gcc 4.6 added new warnings about structs with greater visibility than their fields. The warnings were silenced by adjusting visibility in commit d5523ead90b6be2b07d4af745b8ed9b980a6b9f1 Author: Carl Worth <cworth@cworth.org> Date: Wed May 11 13:23:13 2011 -0700 Mark some structures in the library interface with visibility=default attribute. Later on, commit 3b76adf9e2c026dd03b820f4c6eab50e25444113 Author: Austin Clements <amdragon@MIT.EDU> Date: Sat Jan 14 19:17:33 2012 -0500 lib: Add support for automatically excluding tags from queries changed visibility of struct _notmuch_string_list for the same reason, and commit 1a53f9f116fa7c460cda3df532be921baaafb082 Author: Mark Walters <markwalters1009@gmail.com> Date: Thu Mar 1 22:30:38 2012 +0000 lib: Add the exclude flag to notmuch_query_search_threads split the struct _notmuch_string_list and its typedef notmuch_string_list_t as a way to make a forward declaration for _notmuch_thread_create(). The subtle difference was that the struct definition now had 'visible' in it, while the typedef didn't, and it was within the #pragma GCC visibility push(hidden) block. This went unnoticed, as the then common versions of clang didn't care about this. A later change in clang (I did not dig into when this change was introduced) caused the following error: CXX -O2 lib/database.o In file included from lib/database.cc:21: In file included from ./lib/database-private.h:33: ./lib/notmuch-private.h:479:8: error: visibility does not match previous declaration struct visible _notmuch_string_list { ^ ./lib/notmuch-private.h:67:33: note: expanded from macro 'visible' ^ ./lib/notmuch-private.h:52:13: note: previous attribute is here ^ 1 error generated. make: *** [lib/database.o] Error 1 This is slightly misleading due to the reference to the #pragma. The real culprit is the typedef within the #pragma. We could just add 'visible' to the typedef, or move the typedef outside of the #pragma, and be done with it, but juggle the declarations a bit to accommodate moving the typedef back with the struct, and keep the visibility attribute in one place. The problem was originally reported by Simonas Kazlauskas <s@kazlauskas.me> in id:20130418102507.GA23688@godbox but I was only able to reproduce and investigate now that I upgraded clang.
