Failure with include on Sun, Solaris2.9 with G++

[Hugh Sasse Staff Elec Eng <hgs at dmu dot ac dot uk>]

Havng got past my dejagnu problem I have run into this with my
binutils build from cvs.


rm -f .libs/lcd-char-display.lo
g++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I../../../../src/sid/component/lcd -I.. -I. -I../../include -I../../../../src/sid/component/lcd/../../include -g -O2 -Wp,-MD,.deps/lcd-char-display.pp -c  -fPIC -DPIC ../../../../src/sid/component/lcd/lcd-char-display.cxx -o .libs/lcd-char-display.lo

+ exit 1


The full build is recorded at:
http://www.eng.cse.dmu.ac.uk/~hgs/binutils-cvs-failure.txt
(approx 1.1MB).

The relevant chunk of curses.h is:

    70	#define	strrchr			rindex
    71	#endif /* SYSV */
    72
    73	#if !(defined(__cplusplus) && defined(_BOOL))
    74	typedef	char bool;
    75	#endif
    76
    77	#define	_VR3_COMPAT_CODE
    78	/*
    79	 * chtype is the type used to store a character together with attributes.
    80	 * It can be set to "char" to save space, or "long" to get more attributes.


When I installed g++ should this not have been fixed up?  Do I need
a newer version of something?

        Thank you,
        Hugh
