Thanks for the tip, but what it do not understand is that I have gcc 2.95.4 (which I think can not be considered as old), but in my stdargs.g I only found __va_copy(), the other primitive doesn't not exist.

You solution put me on the right way and this link raise (and solves) the problem :
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/1998-02/msg00835.html (dated 1998 !).

Does anyone as anyexplanation on this fact?
