Compiler: MinGW Windows Compiler using GNU gcc-3.4.5The compiler delivers error messages only concerned with the following function and only those array members marked /* ERROR*/. (The comment is of course inserted here to identify the error element and is not present in the C file.)

# define AP_INIT_FLAG(directive, func, mconfig, where, help) \ {directive, { .flag=func }, mconfig, where, FLAG, help}The error messages are all of the following form: (/directory/directory/file.c : line number : error: error text). For clarity only the messages relating to the first element in error is shown, with its (presumably) cascaded errors.
/mingw/httpd-2.2.11/mod_proxy_html.c:1471: error: initializer element is not constant /mingw/httpd-2.2.11/mod_proxy_html.c:1471: error: (near initialization for `proxy_html_cmds[6].func.flag') /mingw/httpd-2.2.11/mod_proxy_html.c:1471: error: initializer element is not constant /mingw/httpd-2.2.11/mod_proxy_html.c:1471: error: (near initialization for `proxy_html_cmds[6].func') /mingw/httpd-2.2.11/mod_proxy_html.c:1471: error: initializer element is not constant /mingw/httpd-2.2.11/mod_proxy_html.c:1471: error: (near initialization for `proxy_html_cmds[6]')
Typically, the values of the initializer elements are set in a separate Apache configuration file. The inference is, therefore, that the func element of the directive cannot be a constant at compile time and contravenes the C rules (but not C++?).
However, the above code structure is replicated in the main server code and, since my downloaded Apache main server binary works ok (I didn't compile it), there must be a work-around or the MinGW compiler is the problem.
I have seen references to an archived similar problem with cygwin but no clues to a solution. Has anybody met this and, if so, can you give any pointers to a solution? I would be very grateful for any help.
