Ah, well.

No, I did not install any new gcc. I use the version supplied with
MDK7.1 (gcc-2.95.2-7mdk ).

Well, both gcc (symlink to gcccolor) and gcccolor are present. If gcc was not
present sure I could not get anything compiled... But this problem seems to
affect only certain RPMS and not others.

I think it could be a RPM issue, since I do not get the same error trying to
compile directly (not using rpm, but "simulating" it with the .spec file).

Any idea?!?!

Are others experincing the same problem?
