I should add that the file /usr/include/sys/types.h, according to the
error output, is included from /usr/include/stdlib.h which in turn is
included from scc.c.  

Perhaps there is a bug in scc.c --- I think I'll try and exclude this
option from the .config file --- if I can work out which option it is (any
clues?)

Cheers,

Mark.
