I checked the Mandrake version of gcc and it is 2.91.66 (egcs 1.1.2). I
am not sure about the libraries but I do not believe that they are the
problem as the error was complaining about illegal use of registers in an
asm statement in rtl_time.h. Could people please let me know if they are
able to compile with recent gcc versions. I am trying to determine where
the problem is (code or compiler).
Thanks,
John

It is dangerous mixing code built with different versions of
gcc, in particular linking libraries compiled with gcc 2.7.2.3
with code compiled with egcc.
You can find the sources for instance on a debian server
ftp://ftp.debian.org,
/pub/debian/dists/stable/main/source/devel/gcc_2.7.2.3.orig.tar.gz
