Looks to me like something wrong with your gcc installation's handling of 
-ansi. The -D__STRICT_ANSI__-trigraphs bit comes from inside the compiler 
driver script, I think. And the lack of a space seems to indicate a 
mistake in there.

One quick way to test this is by typing this:

    echo "int main() { }" > test.c
    gcc -ansi test.c

If that gives you the same warning, you know that you have a gcc problem.
