Cool. You found a regression. Assuming you can get around your problem
below, you can follow this [1] to find out which patch exactly caused
the failure.

I assume you did "./configure; make install"?

Hmmph. It kinda seems like code from 2004 won't compile anymore. If this
were true, it would really suck. What version of gcc are you using?

The problem appears to be confined to a rather unimportant tool. You can
try to give the option "-k" to make and see how far you get along.

Sometimes #define's and #include's throw the line count of track. The
actual problem propably is a few lines before that.
