Hi,

You need the include file gsl_complex_math.h
In case of similar trouble, grep the include files:
(in the /usr/local/include or similar:)
>cd gsl/complex
>grep gsl_complex_rect *.h
gsl_complex_math.h:gsl_complex gsl_complex_rect (double x, double y);  /*
r= real+i*imag */
gsl_complex_math.h:gsl_complex_rect (double x, double y)
gsl_complex_math.h:#define GSL_COMPLEX_ONE (gsl_complex_rect(1.0,0.0))
gsl_complex_math.h:#define GSL_COMPLEX_ZERO (gsl_complex_rect(0.0,0.0))
gsl_complex_math.h:#define GSL_COMPLEX_NEGONE (gsl_complex_rect(-1.0,0.0))

Greetings,
Fleur Kelpin
