I wonder if Receiver is defined in a include file elsewhere? I checked
all the header files on my system and it isn't, perhaps it is on your
though? Maybe easier to rename it?
Here is what I did to hunt for it:
find /usr/include | xargs grep Receiver > log
find /usr/local/include | xargs grep Receiver >> log
find /usr/X11R6/include | xargs grep Receiver >> log
