Moving from 4.1.2 to 4.2.3 generates problems with size_t def.

Moving from 4.1.2 to 4.2.3 generates problems with size_t def.

[Paulo J. Matos]

Hi all,

I just moved from 4.1.2 to 4.2.3 and I am getting an error in my
timemgm.c:16 file. Line 16 is the first non-comment line of the file
with #include<stdlib.h> and I get:
if gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I..  -I./include -D_GNU_SOURCE
-Wall --std=c99 -Werror -g -O2 -MT dsat-timemgm.o -MD -MP -MF
".deps/dsat-timemgm.Tpo" -c -o dsat-timemgm.o `test -f 'timemgm.c' ||
echo './'`timemgm.c; \
	then mv -f ".deps/dsat-timemgm.Tpo" ".deps/dsat-timemgm.Po"; else rm
-f ".deps/dsat-timemgm.Tpo"; exit 1; fi
In file included from /usr/include/stdlib.h:33,
                 from timemgm.c:16:
/usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/4.2.3/include/stddef.h:214: error:

/usr/include/stdlib.h:487: error: nonnull argument with out-of-range

/usr/include/stdlib.h:591: error: expected ')' before '__nmemb'
/usr/include/stdlib.h:600: error: expected declaration specifiers or
'...' before 'size_t'

Is there any reason for this?
The lines around stddef.h:214 are:
#ifndef __SIZE_TYPE__
#define __SIZE_TYPE__ long unsigned int
#endif
#if !(defined (__GNUG__) && defined (size_t))
typedef __SIZE_TYPE__ size_t;                       //LINE 214 of stddef.h
#ifdef __BEOS__
typedef long ssize_t;
#endif /* __BEOS__ */

My system is linux, gcc -v is:
$ gcc -v
Using built-in specs.
Target: i686-pc-linux-gnu
Configured with:
/var/tmp/portage/sys-devel/gcc-4.2.3/work/gcc-4.2.3/configure

Thread model: posix
gcc version 4.2.3 (Gentoo 4.2.3 p1.0)

Any suggestions to the problem?

Cheers,

Argh, I had a typo in the first line of the file before the comment section.

Forget it. Thanks,
