It's a conflict between other people's headers. /usr/local/include/zlib.h (version 1.1.4) quoth: typedef void (*free_func) OF((voidpf opaque, voidpf address)); /usr/local/ssl/include/openssl/crypto.h (0.9.7c) quoth: int CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_functions(void *(*m)(size_t), void (*free_func)(void *)); So if this version of zlib.h is included before this version of crypto.h, things break. Other way 'round works fine. We can work around this by being more careful about inclusion order of these headers. Ultimately it would be nice if the upstream library authors could avoid the name conflict. I'm of the opinion that zlib should not be typedef'ing a name as generic as "free_func", but if they've made that part of their exported API, it might be hard for them to change. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 7: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
