On 2007-05-29 02:07Z, you had written:
In file included from /usr/include/unistd.h:4,
                from dbus-binding-tool-glib.c:39:
/usr/include/sys/unistd.h:108: error: parse error before numeric constant

Look at line 108 of that file. In my copy, it's a prototype for _pipe() . Now look for _pipe() in the preprocessed output:

int __attribute__((__cdecl__)) _pipe (int __fildes[2], 4096, _O_BINARY);

Maybe that's the "parse error before numeric constant"?


What does line 108 in your /usr/include/sys/unistd.h say,
exactly? Assuming it's not corrupted, the real question is
how it got turned into the preprocessed line above.

...to hazard a guess, I suspect some .h has '#define pipe(a) _pipe(a, 4096, _O_BINARY)'.
