For some reason, your examples are not coming through to the mailing  
list.

However, it looks like the messages are very clear.  You seem to be  
using "(" (left parenthesis) instead of "{" (left curly brace) on many  
lines.  gcc is expecting a closing parenthesis before the next  
semicolon, and it is expecting a semicolon  before the next closing  
curly brace.
