Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES release 4 gives me errors as below and I do not have these problems with Enterprise release 3. Any suggestions?
Thanks,

Looks like your headers might be tweaked. Can you possibly reinstall them?

What were you building when you ran into this?

Peace...

Might be a new compiler version in R4. What's the output of "gcc -v" under both versions?

Sometimes I see stuff like this if I compile using "g++" when I should be using "gcc", or vice versa.

I was installing red hat enterprise 10.4( gcc -3.4.5 ) and I have not noticed them with red hat enterprise 10.3( gcc 3.2). I checked the c libraries and header files and I don't see anything missing explicitly.
Any suggestions?

Looks like your errors all come from the lines that have the keyword "__restrict". Could it be that you installed the header files from a newer version of the GCC tool than the actual compiler binaries? The __restrict keyword may not have been supported by older versions of the GNU compiler.

I am looking at Red Hat Enterprise WS 4 now. The GCC version is 3.4.4, and I don't get any of the errors you're running into.
