Linux::AIO 1.4 and Fedora Core 3

[Pedro Melo Cunha]

Hi,

Linux::AIO does not compile in Fedora Core 3. It seems to be the same 
problem that was present in core 2 and core 1: 
http://lists.danga.com/pipermail/perlbal/2004-October/000016.html

The C construct that gives the error seems "strange C" to me, it seems 
to be missing a ; at the end. I'm assuming that this is some C-voodoo 
that I don't know about. Fedora Core 3 is using gcc -v

Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc/i386-redhat-linux/3.4.2/specs
Configured with: ../configure --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man 
--infodir=/usr/share/info --enable-shared --enable-threads=posix 
--disable-checking --with-system-zlib --enable-__cxa_atexit 
--disable-libunwind-exceptions --enable-java-awt=gtk 
--host=i386-redhat-linux
Thread model: posix
gcc version 3.4.2 20041017 (Red Hat 3.4.2-6.fc3)

Maybe it's a problem with the compiler? Any other ideias?

Checking if your kit is complete...
Looks good
