Hello,
I just recenlly found that I am almost always unable to
build X (Xorg) related applications on a 5.5 box that has
pretty recent source. The applications all die during the
make process with the following error:
error: syntax error before "_X_SENTINEL"
Any to fix this? Googling indicates that this is a common
problem without a solution.

System runs Xorg 6.9.

Thank you for all your time and consideration.


I saw this:

Might be worth a try.

Yes, I caught the thread on that board. But didn't find the solution you
provided. Thanks! That was the /magic/ required to stop the whining offender
(gdkx.h). After some more research and investigation, this anomoly
appears to be a GTK/GD issue, and not X. I'm trying to figure out how to
get this #ifdef hack sucked in globally for the gtk/gd environment. I'm
/pretty/ sure gdkx.h will probably cover it. But would rather have it
sucked in from a seperate file. So as to not contaminate the actual header
file. I've cc'd the ports list, in hopes there is a better solution and
(even better) a newer version that resolves this problem.

NOTE to ports list: please cc me in your replies.

Thanks again for your reply.
