Compilation failure with gcc-11 about gator

Hi @bjacklyn - thanks for this.

What tag / version are you attempting to build/use. I am not able to repro this for 7.5, 7.6, 7.7 or our current internal development build.

If you are using an older version, is their any reason you need the combination of old Streamline version + brand new GCC version?

Ah I should have said the version -- it's 7.1 -- the reason for that is it's another team which decides which version of dependencies they want to use, whereas I'm just upgrading the compiler to the latest.

In the latest versions this must be transitively available from somewhere else, but I do think it's worthwhile to IWYU and it's also a trivial fix -- I've manged to workaround it by creating this patchfile in our build system:

diff --git a/daemon/linux/perf/PerfBuffer.h b/daemon/linux/perf/PerfBuffer.h

Ok, thanks.

Yes agreed, thank for pointing it out.
