Postgresql 7.4 fails to compile on Redhat Fedora Core 1 Linux - Mailing list pgsql-ports

Hi all,

I just tried to compile Postgresql 7.4 on RHFC1 linux without success. I used
./configure --with-python --with-perl , then make.

I get an error while bootstrap.c is being compiled (see messages below).

gcc --version reports itself as
gcc (GCC) 3.3.2 20031022 (Red Hat Linux 3.3.2-1)

Maybe this is a gcc error? Any help would much be appreciated.

btw: There is an error on the 'subscribe to the list' link on http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-ports/ . One gets
theerror 

Majordomo Error

The domain "postgresql.o" is not supported!

..obviously the domain name should be postgresql.org instead.
