This error seems to be something related to the va_list, va_start... types/structures. Could you please check your system header files to see what is the version of these functions
used by your system. As there are 2 versions of these functions:

void va_start( va_list arg_ptr ); (UNIX version)
void va_start( va_list arg_ptr, prev_param ); (ANSI version)

Also, the va_dcl line (line 56) could be the reason of the problem, as it is said (in VC++ help):

va_dcl -> Declaration of va_alist (UNIX version only)

I think this is the problem, so please check your header files and tell me what you find.

Cheers
