From reading around, I'm pretty sure that it's due to an excessively long command string, as there's a lot of include paths being added to the gcc command with the -I option. However, I had fixed this problem previously on an older computer somehow, but I've lost the website where I found the solution. It was something to do with a flag that is set when compiling gcc so that it would ignore the error, I think. It's not due to my computer being low on memory or resources or anything like that. I can't modify the makefile as this is another department's program and I know it was fixable by changing the tools somehow. If anyone could point me to any suggestion along these lines I'd appreciate it.
