Downloaded the 1.18 version of pl_funcs.c and put it in the source code
tree, "make clean", "make", and it hangs:
gcc -O2 -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Wno-error -fpic
-I. -I../../../../src/include -I/usr/local/ssl/include -c -o pl_funcs.o
pl_funcs.c
pl_funcs.c:8: unterminated character constant
pl_funcs.c:13: unterminated character constant
