I am running 2.0R, which includes gcc 2.6.2.  I am trying to compile
tin-1.22, but I am having a problem.

In line 73 of screen.c, I get an error because sys_errlist is redefined as a
different type.  In stdio.h, line 244, sys_errlist is defined as:
extern __const char *__const sys_errlist[];

In screen.c, it is defined as:
extern char *sys_errlist[];

Obviously, the __const is causing the problem.  What is this __const?  Why
is it there?  Why is it breaking?
