Steps to reproduce

Build from source.

I don't reproduce the issue on Fedora 41 with mingw-gcc 14.2.1 20240801.

You seem to have a fairly old versions of mingw (GCC 10-win32 20210110), which system are you on?

Please provide more information in your issues, I can luckily extract from the error message that you're building for Windows x86_64, template_debug, with double=yes, but this should be stated explicitly and with the full build command you're using when reporting build issues.

We might just need to up our minimum supported GCC/mingw version, or maybe find a workaround for the missing define in old mingw.

The only recent change to this code seems to be #97934, but it's pretty strange that removing ; can cause it.

[roalyr]

My bad. Here are details:

Debian GNU/Linux 11 (bullseye)

It's likely not GCC version, but MinGW headers version issue, bullseye package seems to be 8.0.0-1, that's definitely too old (not sure whether 9.0.0 or 10.0.0 is min. required, current version is 12.0.0).

[roalyr]

I was building it two weeks ago and it worked. Also I am on MX Linux, its i686-w64-mingw32-c++-posix is 10.2.1-6

[roalyr]

Will try to build it with LLVM instead.

clang version 19.1.3 (https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project.git ab51eccf88f5321e7c60591c5546b254b6afab99)
Target: x86_64-w64-windows-gnu
