Yes  ;-)

There is an unterminated
character constant in line 1553 of "objdump.c" in the
directory given by the error message.

Suppose there's a semicolon missing there?

However, as Kent Stewart has noticed, it's a real good
idea to make sure you're building the correct src tree
first.  AFAIK, 5.x is using different build tools.

Take a look at the stable@list, as you're running 4.x,
and see if anyone else is having this trouble.  AAMOF,
it'd probably be good to post this there.

HTH,
