Hi David, This looks to be a genuine oversight on my part, which has until recently been patched up accidentally by the definition of a macro MIN() in /usr/include/sys/param.h (on Mac OS X 10.10.5 and RHEL 5, for example) — a file which is included indirectly from one or more of the system headers — and presumably MIN is no longer being patched by that file on your system (either because the header isn't included, or because MIN is no longer defined in the header). There's a definition of MIN in decfix.c, but that's no direct help.
In the short term, please add a line: #define MIN(a, b) (((a) < (b))?(a):(b)) near the top of dbdimp.ec — that should allow you to proceed. I will in due course make a new release with that oversight fixed.
