A lot of this looks like problems with configure using the wrong cpp to do C preprocessor tests. In particular the syntax errors in the include/catalog files suggest that configure's conclusion that you have pre-ANSI preprocessing: > checking for preprocessor stringizing operator... no is wrong. I see > checking how to run the C preprocessor... /lib/cpp and I wonder whether /lib/cpp is actually equivalent to /usr/bin/cc's preprocessing. Does /usr/bin/cc accept a -E switch? If so, why didn't configure use that? (Do you maybe have CPP=/lib/cpp in your environment?) Also, where did configure come by all these switches for cc: > checking whether the C compiler (/usr/bin/cc -O3 -I/usr/freeware/include >-L/usr/freeware/lib32 -L/usr/lib32) works... yes Bottom line is that I suspect configure is being misled by some of your environment settings. But another possibility is that src/makefiles/Makefile.irix5 is doing something inappropriate. In particular I wonder why it has override CPPFLAGS += -U_NO_XOPEN4 Is this (still) appropriate for IRIX? If so, perhaps it needs to be done in src/template/irix5 instead (so that configure will see it)? regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: subscribe and unsubscribe commands go to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
