Hi Everyone!

I'm back working on this problem again...

So I have moved all the dynamips_common.h includes to after the system
includes and got a lot further but have hit the error again later on in
the build :(

    Import dynamips_common.h after importing system headers

:100644 100644 fd06b39... 466ff40... M  common/dev_vtty.c
:100644 100644 090e772... 1640b73... M  common/net.h
:100644 100644 7b52845... ef04385... M  common/net_io.c
:100644 100644 20a3645... 732bd78... M  common/utils.c
:100644 100644 86309b9... 006bad6... M  stable/hypervisor.c

:100644 100644 9305935... 4109169... M  unstable/utils.h

And the build error I now hit:

Can anyone elaborate on this? I understand the what is being said here,
but my C skills aren't at that level! Can the scope be changed, so it's
not in the global scope... or would it be a matter of choosing a
different name for that definition.

Cheers

Daniel
