compiling

I'm compiling a database library with pro*C which converts the .ppc library file to a .c file that gcc can use. However, I'm getting a lot of errors in pro*C like the following

PCC-S-02201, Encountered the symbol "__ attribute__ " when expecting one of the following

...

, Encountered the symbol "__builtin_va_list" when expecting one of the following

The missing symbols are from a chain of standard includes like stdio.h and stdlib.h. How do I get around this issue?

The library I'm compiling came from an old solaris system that we're now upgrading (to a new solaris 10 system) and the header files don't seem to use these symbols. e.g. the newer .h files has

typedef __builtin_va_list va_list

while the old .h files has

typedef void* va_list

There are a lot of things like this so I'm reluctant to go and fix all of them manually with a typedef
