Thanks for the report. However, this is not a bug in coreutils, since
we explicitly document in the "Pre-C99 build failure" section in README
the minimum compiler that we are willing to support.

The declaration-after-statement construct is required by C99 (now more
than 10 years old), and supported as an extension by a number of C89
compilers. Your problem is that gcc 2.95.3 is SOOOO old that it does
not understand this extension.
