	hey, i got this compilerr error while building gnustep 0.6.0 with:
[ajoshi@entropy Source]$ gcc -v
Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/ppc-redhat-linux/2.95.2/specs
gcc version 2.95.2 19990906 (prerelease)

  on a:
[ajoshi@entropy Source]$ uname -a
Linux entropy.ppc.kernel.org 2.2.12 #3 Sat Sep 11 19:21:44 MST 1999 ppc
unknown

this is a glibc 2.1.2 machine, here's the build info:

i tried attaching the precompiler output but it was too big and the cygnus
mail servers were rejecting my mail.  anyhow, if you want to see it its
at:
http://www.glue.umd.edu/~ajoshi/NSSplitView.mi.gz

any ideas?

thanks,

ani
