Indeed, and infact I sent an e-mail to the author of the program.
The problem is pertinent to the "invalid lvalue in assignment" that I
saw in various other programs that were then patched to be able to
compile from gcc 3 to 4.
But my question could also be seen in general as how to override
pre-defined macros, not only for the __cc one. Or is this in general a
no-no thing to do?
Thanks,
