That interacts poorly with threaded e-mail readers. Just send a new e-mail message instead. This is true for all e-mail lists. Thanks. This error message does not come from gcc. It comes from your system header files. open is declared as an inline function, and it verifies at compile time that it has enough options. If you get this error message when building gcc 4.0.2, that suggests that there is a bug in the gcc 4.0.2 source code. You didn't mention where you get the message, so I can't actually check. In any case, if you don't get the message when building gcc 4.3.2, that suggests that the bug has been fixed. Ian
