- I've run into a problem compiling the 0.96cpl2 kernel.
- The patches go in okay and the compile runs fine until I get down to
- tools/build.c in the compilation. When it tries to read stdlib.h in the
- headers, the following comes back:
-
- In file included from tools/build.c:25
- /usr/include/stdlib.h:115: parse error before '*'
- /usr/include/stdlib.h:118: parse error before 'wchar_t'
-
- The same error for the first line comes back again for lines 121 and 123
- before a long pause by the compiler, then a barf with a make error 1.
-
- I'm using gcc 2.2.2, all the new binutils, and all the header files
- from the special package H.J. put together. That header file, however,
- is part of the standard gcc distribution. I tried downloading the files
- again from different sources (mcc instead of tsx, for example) in case
- something was corrupt someplace, but nothing I do seems to help.
-
- If anyone has a fix for this, I'd appreciate the help.
- I'd like to
- get this thing built so I can test the msdos_fs.
