NeXT's C compiler doesn't "require" ANSI C, and you are basically asking for trouble if you try to shoehorn _any_ "portable" UNIX source code into the braindead "ANSI" mode. Give cc the -bsd option and it will act much more rationally. Really. Please see sonata.cc.purdue.edu:~ftp/pub/next/patches/elm2.3pl11 for NeXT-specific information and code fixes applicable to all platforms. -=EPS=-
