Yes, I had the same problem on my Sun.  I gather that Gnuchess is now
ansi compliant and that is the reason for all error messages.  So I 
FTP'ed GCC 1.39 (Gnu C Compiler - nearly 3 megs compressed) and all is 
well now.  

A tip of the hat to the person who posted the fix so gnuchess will run 
under chesstool.
