gcc2.7.0 vs gnu oleo

Hi, all,

   I tried last week to compile the Gnu spreadsheet, oleo, using both
the oldish gcc already on this system and also with plain old cc; both
broke at some point in the compile.  I tried several different sets of
compiler flags without success and finally decided to update to a more 
recent gcc.  I obtained and successfully built gcc 2.7.0 this morning, 
but oleo still won't compile. It breaks on strftime.c, thus:

  Has anyone reading this group built oleo lately with gcc? What version
did you use and what flags?  FYI this is a 486 running a very plain vanilla 
SysV r.4.0 from Dell. The oleo version is 1.6 and the new gcc was built 
using i386-ANY-sysv4. All the stuff that gcc wanted to put under /usr/local/
is there and seems correct, and it's being used by the compile.

  Thanks very much to anyone who can give me a hint here!
