HELP ,
	I am trying to compile gdb_4.7 on a decstation 5000/25.
I ran the ./configure decstation script and then invoked make.
Make bombed out when it could not find the following include
files : machine/param.h and machine/vmparam.h. I fixed this by
creating links in the /usr/include/machine dir to these files
which I found in /usr/sys/h. ( I am not sure if I did the right
thing but it works. ).

	The problem I can not work out is that when make tries
to compile libbfd.c.

cc -Wf,-XNg1000 -c -g -DTRAD_CORE -G 4 -I. -I. -I./include libbfd.c

It bombs out with

cpp : error /usr/include/ansi_compat.h:1: -N_STATIC_IOBS: too much pushback
cpp : error libbfd.c:291: missing endif

	What am I doing wrong ???

Thanks in Advance,
