I am having difficulty compiling gcc (v. 2.95.1) on a DEC station 3100
with the Ultrix 4.5 operating system.  I think there may be a problem with
DEC's C compiler using an old C pre-processor.  I tried the suggested fix
in the FAQ of making sure there isn't a '.' or a '::' in my path although
when I do 'make bootstrap' (after './configure') the make stops with a
different error message which follows.  The problem occurs both with
DEC's make and GNU make,
