  This __NORETURN is defined as '__attribute__((volatile)) when working with
2.7.0 or newer. So those 'extern __NORETURN void ...' become:
'extern __attribute__ ((volatile)) void ...' that gcc-2.7.2 doesn't like...
(don't ask me why...), so just change the places so the protos say like:
'extern void __attribute__((volatile)) functionx(parameters);' or could the
end before ';' be a more suitable place for the '__NORETURN'...

  If you get this compiled and to work somehow, I would be interested, I'm
thinking to make a cross-compiler from i386-ibcs2-world to Sparc, so a free
C-library would be needed... I have fighted with the SCO/SysV port of glibc-1.09
lately, using 2.7.2 to compile it...
