This is a problem with the gcc version. I had a lot of problems recently
when I tried to install the NRL extensions with the ns 2.27 version.
Downgrading gcc is not actually an easy task (as I discovered). Google up
some gcc forums and follow steps provided there. I will look again for the
link I used and let you know if I find it.
Simple solution to the problem though - Use fedora 2. The whole sensor net
extension and ns installation gets done without problems in 15 mins. Just a
quick hack to your problem .. :)
