Thanks!  I was beginning to think that my problem was too localized for
everyone to take a crack at it.

Yep:

orbit-config --version
ORBit 0.4.3
gnome-config --version
gnome-libs 1.0.8

Should I be doing a clean afterwords?

Unfortunately, this is not the case.  I still have the exact same error.
I'm still puzzled as where POA_FileManager_Window is defined.  It makes a
typedef to a struct of which one of it's members is
POA_Gnome_FileManager_Window.  However, the definition for this is not
found anywhere.  It's a macro or a typedef in itself and it must be
containing an error otherwise I wouldn't have gotten a parsing error.

I thought for a moment that it was a localized problem only to my computer
at work.  But my machine at home is doing the same thing and it has a
different configuration.  Typically, I've gotten one or the other to
build, and usually can find what the difference is and fix it.  But this
seems to be consistent.  

I'm surprised nobody else has this problem.  This is on a red hat 5.2
system I"m using RedHat 5.2 on one system and a Mandrake Linux system on
the other.
