Ok, I understood the chain of events to be GNUC was not defined and neither=
 was __lint__, thereby coming to "No function renaming possible." =20

   #if !defined(_STANDALONE) && !defined(_KERNEL)
         #ifdef __GNUC__
           #define __RENAME(x)     ___RENAME(x)
        #else
            #ifdef __lint__
               #define __RENAME(x)     __symbolrename(x)
             #else
                #error "No function renaming possible"
           #endif /* __lint__ */
       #endif /* __GNUC__ */
     #else /* _STANDALONE || _KERNEL */
        #define __RENAME(x)     no renaming in kernel or standalone environm=
ent
    #endif

However, upon further review, you quite correct.  I misunderstood the=
 compiler message:

SUF: not found
SUF: not found
SUF: not found
SUF: not found
SUF: not found
"/usr/include/sys/cdefs.h", line 245: error: unknown control

apparently it is not the path that is the problem but the control "#error"=
 that is the problem.  Or am I mistaken here as well?  (Quite possible, as=
 dealing with the compiling aspect of software always gives me fits, as the=
 tools always seem to get in the way instead of working and letting me focus=
 on the code.)

I'm in the middle of something and wanted to post/ask this, instead of=
 delaying until I had responded to the rest of the email.

thanks,
