Actually the line numbers you quote indicate 2.0 SDK headers, and indeed
this problem has long since been fixed in the 3.0 headers.

So look at line 252 then...

Since you're using C++ you should know that `false' and `true' are keywords
in C++. You can fix this by wrapping the usual "#ifndef __cplusplus" pair
around this line.

You can see exactly what header files are being included with the `-H'
option. (However, in this case, it'll just tell you the same thing as
the error message :-).)

On your system, e:\\palm\\GnuPP\\lib\\gcc-lib\\m68k-palmos-coff/2.7.2.2-
kgpd-071097/include/PalmOS is a symbolic link to the directory you expect.
(What? You don't have symbolic links on Windows? With cygwin you do :-)
-- take a look at that file.)

RTFM! :-)
(If you type "bool false enum" and "forum: pilot.programmer.gcc" into
DejaNews you will find year-old articles solving this problem.)
