Gudrun:

Apparently this version of the compiler, in 'ansi' (c89) mode,
is so strictly ansi it is choking on include files supplied with
the system. (This is analogus a biological entity with an auto
immune disorder.)

The fix is to start over using 'cc':
Set the environment variable 'CC' to 'cc' (as opposed to 'c89').
In the top level src directory, run 'make distclean,
./configure again, and then 'make'.
