something has gone bad with the SYSV IPC headers and such, i just did a make world today and they are still messed: compiling a program: #include <sys/sem.h> int main() { union semun foo; return 0; } produces this deluge of errors: perlsta@server:~>gcc test.c In file included from /usr/include/sys/sem.h:13, from test.c:1: /usr/include/sys/ipc.h:54: parse error before `ushort' /usr/include/sys/ipc.h:54: warning: no semicolon at end of struct or union /usr/include/sys/ipc.h:55: warning: data definition has no type or storage class /usr/include/sys/ipc.h:56: parse error before `uid' /usr/include/sys/ipc.h:56: warning: data definition has no type or storage class /usr/include/sys/ipc.h:57: parse error before `gid' /usr/include/sys/ipc.h:57: warning: data definition has no type or storage class /usr/include/sys/ipc.h:58: parse error before `mode' /usr/include/sys/ipc.h:58: warning: data definition has no type or storage class /usr/include/sys/ipc.h:59: parse error before `seq' /usr/include/sys/ipc.h:59: warning: data definition has no type or storage class /usr/include/sys/ipc.h:60: parse error before `key' /usr/include/sys/ipc.h:60: warning: data definition has no type or storage class In file included from /usr/include/sys/sem.h:13, from test.c:1: /usr/include/sys/ipc.h:94: parse error before `ftok' /usr/include/sys/ipc.h:94: warning: data definition has no type or storage class In file included from test.c:1: /usr/include/sys/sem.h:16: parse error before `u_short' /usr/include/sys/sem.h:16: warning: no semicolon at end of struct or union /usr/include/sys/sem.h:17: warning: data definition has no type or storage class /usr/include/sys/sem.h:18: parse error before `semncnt' /usr/include/sys/sem.h:18: warning: data definition has no type or storage class /usr/include/sys/sem.h:19: parse error before `semzcnt' /usr/include/sys/sem.h:19: warning: data definition has no type or storage class /usr/include/sys/sem.h:23: field `sem_perm' has incomplete type /usr/include/sys/sem.h:25: parse error before `u_short' /usr/include/sys/sem.h:25: warning: no semicolon at end of struct or union /usr/include/sys/sem.h:26: warning: data definition has no type or storage class /usr/include/sys/sem.h:28: parse error before `sem_ctime' /usr/include/sys/sem.h:28: warning: data definition has no type or storage class /usr/include/sys/sem.h:33: parse error before `}' /usr/include/sys/sem.h:39: parse error before `u_short' /usr/include/sys/sem.h:39: warning: no semicolon at end of struct or union /usr/include/sys/sem.h:42: parse error before `}' /usr/include/sys/sem.h:53: parse error before `u_short' /usr/include/sys/sem.h:53: warning: no semicolon at end of struct or union /usr/include/sys/sem.h:175: warning: parameter has incomplete type /usr/include/sys/sem.h:176: parse error before `int' test.c: In function `main': test.c:3: storage size of `foo' isn't known so what gives? :) i looked at the file and it looks PERFECT to me, maybe gcc is choking on itself? but cc does the same thing... hmmmm anyone have any ideas? the reason i got into this mess is cause i'm trying to install the latest version of Wine and i noticed how its 'configure' script says that there is no "union semun" but i found it, the problem happens cause gcc returns an error code, not because the variable isn't declared, but because it has problems parsing the file.... HELP! :) -Alfred
