problem building scsh on Fedora Core 4

Please excuse the cross-posting; comp.lang.scheme.scsh seems
dead. I've downloaded scsh version 0.6.6 from scsh.net and attempted
to build it under Fedora Core 4. I get a number of "incompatible
implicit declaration of built-in function" warnings for things like
memcpy and strlen, followed by:

gcc -c -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I./c -I./cig -O2 -o scsh/libscsh.o scsh/libscsh.c
scsh/libscsh.c: In function 's48_vcommand':
scsh/libscsh.c:29: warning: incompatible implicit declaration of built-in function 'exit'
gcc -c -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I./c -I./cig -O2 -o scsh/md5.o scsh/md5.c
scsh/md5.c: In function 'MD5Update_stub':
scsh/md5.c:317: warning: pointer targets in passing argument 2 of 'MD5Update' differ in signedness
scsh/md5.c: In function 'MD5Final_stub':
scsh/md5.c:325: warning: pointer targets in passing argument 1 of 's48_enter_substring' differ in signedness
gcc -c -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I./c -I./cig -O2 -o scsh/proc2.o scsh/proc2.c
gcc -c -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I./c -I./cig -O2 -o c/srfi/srfi-27.o c/srfi/srfi-27.c
gcc -c -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I./c -I./cig -O2 -o c/unix/misc.o c/unix/misc.c
gcc -c -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I./c -I./cig -O2 -o c/unix/io.o c/unix/io.c
c/unix/io.c: In function 'ps_write_integer':
c/unix/io.c:154: error: invalid storage class for function 'write_integer'
c/unix/io.c: At top level:
c/unix/io.c:171: error: conflicting types for 'write_integer'
c/unix/io.c:160: error: previous implicit declaration of 'write_integer' was here
make: *** [c/unix/io.o] Error 1

Has anyone successfully built scsh in this environment?

Thanks,

Patrick

The right place would be scsh-users@scsh.net---look on www.scsh.net
under "support."

That seems strange---the declarations are completely identical.

Does moving the definition of write_integer before ps_write_integer
(and eliding the local forward declaration) help?

That fixed it! Admit it, you put that bit of strangeness in
there to give yourself an opportunity to look insightful. ;-)

Thanks,
