Strange syntax error problem with mmorpg-framework

[Donald Duck]

Hi there,

I want to compile a big project from sourceforge.net (a mmorpg server
framework). But since a change in a source-file, gcc doesn't compile it at
all. I already asked on the project dev's forum, but the sayed, that I have
to use gcc 4.x.y ... This is quite strange, because I'm already using gcc
4.1.1-15.

Okay, here are the details:

To get the system compiled, i have to do the following:

----quote-----
autoreconf --install --force
./configure --prefix=/opt/mangos/mangos_
--sysconfdir=/opt/mangos/mangos_/etc --enable-cli --enable-ra
--datadir=/opt/mangos/mangos_
make > make.log 2>&1
----/quote-----

I used this lines also with earlier revisions and they always worked fine.

autoreconf is working, configure also. But make exits with this lines:

----quote----

Okay, I looked at the source . I'm not very good at c/c++ programming, but I
cannot find a syntax error. Also many other people in the dev's forum don't
have this problem. So I compared the different sourcecode revisions. I found
out, that the problems comes with revision 5126. Please have a look at the
following diff:
http://www.mangosproject.org/trac/changeset?old_path=trunk%2Fsrc%2Fgame%2FPlayer.cpp&old=5122&new_path=trunk%2Fsrc%2Fgame%2FPlayer.cpp&new=5126
player.cpp source diff rev5120->rev5126 

rev5120 compiles fine, rev5126 which has those changes, exits with the above
mentioned lines. 

I used debian sarge with gcc 4.1.1-15
I used SuSE linux 9.3 prof with gcc 4.1.1

Both aren't able to compile rev5126 and newer. Revisions up to 5126 are
working ...So it has to do with the changes in player.cpp

I would be pleased if someone could tell me if this is a gcc problem or
whatever this problems causes.
If you need further information, please let me know ...

with kind regards,
Alex
