Error compiling SRPM gnome-core-0.28

["Francis A. Vidal" <francis LINUX1 usls edu>]

hello everyone,

i've been trying to compile gnome for two days and have never succeeded. i
think it's time i ask for help.

i want to compile gnome on my redhat 5.0 (updated with patches; gcc -v
2.7.2.3) system. i have the following libraries installed already: 

	ImageMagick-4.0.5-4
	ImageMagick-devel-4.0.5-4
	libgr-2.0.13-10
	libgr-devel-2.0.13-10
	libgr-progs-2.0.13-10
	libjpeg-6b-5
	libjpeg-devel-6b-5
	libpng-1.0.1-1
	libpng-devel-1.0.1-1
	libtiff-3.4-4
	libtiff-devel-3.4-4
	libungif-3.1.0-3
	libungif-devel-3.1.0-3
	libungif-progs-3.1.0-3
	zlib-1.1.2-1
	zlib-devel-1.1.2-1
	Imlib-1.7-1

i've successfuly compiled and installed the following libraries:

	ORBit-0.2.1-2
	ORBit-devel-0.2.1-2
	glib-1.1.2
	glib-devel-1.1.2
	gtk+-1.1.1-1
	gtk+-devel-1.1.1-1
	libgtop-0.25.0-1
	libgtop-devel-0.25.0-1
	gnome-libs-0.27-1
	gnome-libs-devel-0.27-1

i got these error messages while compiling gnome-core-0.28.1-1:

	batmon.c:416: warning: type mismatch with previous implicit
		declaration
	batmon.c:303: warning: previous implicit declaration of
		`init_module'
	batmon.c:416: warning: `init_module' was previously implicitly
		declared to return `int'
	batmon.c:416: warning: `init_module' was declared implicitly
		`extern' and later `static'
	batmon.c: In function `main':
	batmon.c:303: conflicting types for `init_module'
	batmon.c:416: previous declaration of `init_module'
	make[3]: *** [batmon.o] Error 1
	---more make errors snipped---

and compilation stops there. i've also tried compiling gnome-core-0.20 but
i also got errors while compiling the file "windows.c"

any clue? thanks!
