[Rcpp-devel] Package compilation error after a Mac update

[Robin GIRARD]

Dear Simon, 

**regarding RcppArmadillo build from source pb**  the config.log is attached and points the following error while checking something about cross  compilation.
In file included from conftest.cpp:9:
/usr/local/clang7/include/c++/v1/stdio.h:108:15: fatal error: 'stdio.h' file not found
#include_next <stdio.h>

But this file exists. 

** regarding my compilation error** it is obtained while trying to build the module file, when calling #include "Rcpp.h » (line 4 of file Client.hpp) 
/usr/local/clang7/bin/clang++  -Wall -I"/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/include" -DNDEBUG -std=c++11 -I../inst/include/ -I"/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.6/Resources/library/Rcpp/include" -isysroot /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX.sdk -I/usr/local/include  -fPIC  -Wall -g -O2  -c mod_client.cc -o mod_client.o

In file included from mod_client.cc:1:
In file included from ../inst/include/Client.hpp:4:
In file included from /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.6/Resources/library/Rcpp/include/Rcpp.h:27:
In file included from /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.6/Resources/library/Rcpp/include/RcppCommon.h:168:
In file included from /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.6/Resources/library/Rcpp/include/Rcpp/as.h:25:
/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.6/Resources/library/Rcpp/include/Rcpp/internal/Exporter.h:31:30: error: reference member 't' binds to a temporary object whose lifetime would be shorter than the lifetime of the constructed object
                    Exporter( SEXP x ) : t(x){}

Thanks in advance for your help
Regards
Robin
