[root AT electrify 12:12:02pm /usr/doc/pentium-gcc] %  gcc -v
Reading specs from
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i586-pc-linux-gnulibc1/pgcc-2.90.23/specs
gcc version pgcc-2.90.23 980102 (egcs-1.0.1 release)

The problems occur with both gcc 2.8 and the pgcc version specified
above.

Problem:

Here is a list of all the warnings/errors:

I could paste more, but I don't want to annoy everyone on the list.

Let's see one part of Xlib.h:

extern XChangePointerControl(
#if NeedFunctionPrototypes
    Display*        /* display */,
    Bool        /* do_accel */,
    Bool        /* do_threshold */,
    int         /* accel_numerator */,
    int         /* accel_denominator */,
    int         /* threshold */
#endif
);

Also, I found another problem, I haven't been able to completely isolate
it, but I thought I should say it here anyway since it is a potential
bug.

I have -I./ as an option passed to gcc.  gcc was complaining that it
couldn't find the file that was being included from the .c file (it was
declared #include <something.h>).  I changed it to -I. and it worked.  I
then put -I./ as the very first option passed to gcc and it worked.
Maybe it's just my imagination, but I'm pretty sure that's what
happened.

Thanks for any help.
