I just downloaded cygwin 1.5.24-2 (just a couple of hours ago) and
compiled the following program with "gcc -ansi fred.c"
(NOTE the "-ansi" keyword):

#define pid_t fred was here

#include <stdio.h>

int main(void)
{
    printf("hello, world\n");
    return (0);
}

And got the following result:

In file included from /usr/include/stdio.h:46,
                 from fred.c:3:
/usr/include/sys/types.h:180: error: parse error before "was"
In file included from /usr/include/sys/types.h:373,
                 from /usr/include/stdio.h:46,
                 from fred.c:3:
/usr/include/cygwin/types.h:146: error: parse error before "fred"


ie it is hitting a typedef for pid_t


This is the compiler version:

gcc (GCC) 3.4.4 (cygming special, gdc 0.12, using dmd 0.125)
Copyright (C) 2004 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

Is "-ansi" not the correct thing to do to get pure ANSI C89 headers?

BFN.  Paul.
