gdm 2.6.0.8 compile error

[Francesco Schibuola <francesco schibu it>]

Good day, list.
I am trying to compile gnome 2.10 from scratch but gdm 2.6.0.8 stops
with the following error:

<error>
keymouselistener.c  -fPIC -DPIC -o .libs/keymouselistener.o
keymouselistener.c: In function `event_time':

Does somebody have an idea on what i am missing or doing wrong?
Do I really need "keymouselistener"? If not, how can I get rid of it?

I cannot find similar errors on the internet with google

The configure line is a simple ./configure --with-prefix=/usr/local

My system:
Linux 2.6.8.1
Glibc 2.3.4
Gcc 3.4.1
Binutils 2.15.91.0.2
Xorg 6.8.2

Thank you in advance for every hint or idea...
