I've compiled gcc 2.7.2 on my Sun Ultra.  I've tried to use
it to compile stuff with limited success.  Most notably, I 
can't get glibc-1.09 to compile with gcc 2.7.2

glibc-1.09, compiled with gcc 2.5.6 solaris binary distribution 
after editing one Makefile.  Will not compile with gcc 2.7.2.
The error message is:
stdio/stdio.h:167: parse error before `void'

The line it's complaining about is:
extern __NORETURN void __libc_fatal __P ((__const char *__message));
In fact, the compile pukes at serveral points when it hits an
extern __NORETURN ...
Why does gcc 2.5.6 not complain, yet gcc 2.7.2 refuse to compile this?
Anyone know the fix?

Can I use glibc compiled with 2.5.6 with 2.7.2?  Is this a dumb 
question?
