variable argument list in irix

[Michael McQuinn <mmcquinn at dolphtech dot com>]

trying to port an application form SunOS
to IRIX6.5.  i installed the freeware software
that came with the system which include
gcc 3.0.  i have been having trouble compiling
some of the software that contains variable
argument lists.  i wrote some sample code
to try to debug the problem.

i keep getting the following errors:


testVarargs.c: In function `fl':
testVarargs.c:10: parse error before "char"
testVarargs.c:10: parse error before "char"
testVarargs.c:10: parse error before "char"
testVarargs.c:10: parse error before "char"
testVarargs.c:10: parse error before "char"
testVarargs.c:10: parse error before ')' token

the following is the sample code that i wrote and
trying to compile:

#include <stdarg.h>

void fl(int nptrs, ...)
{
  va_list ap;
  char *file;
  int argno = 0;

  va_start(ap, nptrs);
  file = va_arg(ap, char *);
  va_end(ap);
}

any ideas?  i am sure that it is a compile option
thing but i can't seem to identify the proper
option to use.
