These line numbers are off. There's no '&' anywhere here. Any chance this file 
wasn't passed through yacc/lex? Does an '&' show up in raw cpp output (maybe 
memchr was defined as some macro)? Try:
cpp -DPERL_CORE -DHAS_FPSETMASK -DHAS_FLOATINGPOINT_H -fno-strict-aliasing 
-pipe  \
        -std=c89 -O -Wall -ansi   -W -Wextra -Wdeclaration-after-statement \
        -Wendif-labels -Wc++-compat -o toke.out

Then inspect toke.out.

Problem with today's modular software: they start with the modules
    and never get to the software part.
