Hi,

Platform: sun OS: 5.5.1

-I'm having problems getting V3.5.6(beta) to build. Here is the error msg:

make = libtiff
/pub/gnu/bin/gcc -c -fpic -g -O -I. -I../libtiff ../libtiff/tif_aux.c
../libtiff/tif_aux.c: In function `TIFFGetFieldDefaulted':
../libtiff/tif_aux.c:202: `__builtin_va_alist' undeclared (first use this function)
../libtiff/tif_aux.c:202: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
../libtiff/tif_aux.c:202: for each function it appears in.)
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `tif_aux.o'

Has anyone encountered this, or have suggestions?

GCC has various __builtin functions. Maybe the above is broken for your GCC version and/or the libc header files you're using are not compatible with the respective GCC version.

There's a GCC switch to turn __builtins completely off - maybe you'd like to try that one ("man gcc" it's listed somewhere).
