The GCC FAQ at cygnus says:
---------------------------------------------
How do I compile X11 headers with g++
When compiling X11 headers with a GCC 2.95 or newer, g++ will complain that types are
missing. These headers
assume that omitting the type means 'int'; this assumption is wrong for C++.
g++ accepts such (illegal) constructs with the option -fpermissive; it will assume
that missing type is 'int' (as
defined by the C89 standard).
Since the upcoming C99 standard also obsoletes the implicit type assumptions, the X11
headers have to get fixed
eventually.
---------------------------------------------
You can use the -fpermissive flag by using
CXX='g++ -fpermissive' ./configure [your options here]
This problem with X includes will have to be solved in one way or
another, but I do not know how we should do it. I'll try to find a
configure test case for it...
