Compilation broken?

Compilation broken?

[Sam Lauber]

I was copying some programming out of a programming book I have. When I compiled it with GCC 3.4.3, it said:

dcl.c:5: error: two or more data types in declaration of `tkntype'

The code at line 5 was:

int tkntype;

It was the first variable declared in the entire thing. I consider this a bug. It isn't a regression. On my 3.4.0, 3.3.3, and 1.3.6, it gave me the same error. I copyed it exactly out of my book.

Please show lines 1-4 of the program.

I don't know any version of GCC numbered 1.3.6.

This question is more appropriate for gcc-help; redirected.

In case you include one or more files in the lines 1-4, then make
sure that there's no missing semicolon at the end of the last
included file.
