Yes, but which header exactly causes the syntax error? I don't see vTHX mentioned in any header in the Texinfo tree, except this: tp/Texinfo/XS/ppport.h:10353:vTHX|5.006000||Viu Could this cause the problem? (I don't understand what ppport.h tries to do here.) Or maybe this part of ppport.h causes the problem: #ifndef aTHX # define aTHX #endif because Perl's embedvar.h does #if defined(MULTIPLICITY) /* cases 2 and 3 above */ # if defined(PERL_IMPLICIT_CONTEXT) # define vTHX aTHX # else # define vTHX PERL_GET_INTERP # endif (I'm obviously stabbing in the dark here.)
