>Description:
When I am trying to compile openldap-server on the Linux box with gcc-2.95 (it causes less breakage than the gcc-4.1.1 that ships with Debian) it fails with the following error message:

gcc -O2 -I/usr/pkg/include/db4 -I/usr/pkg/include -I/usr/include  -I../../include -I. -I./slapi -I. -I../../include   -I/usr/pkg/include/db4 -I/usr/pkg/include -I/usr/include  -I/usr/pkg/include/db4 -I/usr/pkg/include -I/usr/include -c backglue.c
backglue.c: In function `glue_entry_get_rw':
backglue.c:624: parse error before `int'
backglue.c:627: `rc' undeclared (first use in this function)
backglue.c:627: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
backglue.c:627: for each function it appears in.)
*** Error code 1

Stop.
bmake: stopped in /usr/pkgsrc/databases/openldap-server/work/openldap-2.3.38/servers/slapd
*** Error code 1
>How-To-Repeat:
just try to build it.
>Fix:
There has been already a discussion about this on the openldap mailing list:
http://www.mail-archive.com/openldap-devel@openldap.org/msg01836.html
(the patch form the ML is wrong)


I looked into it and found a small patch:
