Re: gnome cvs compiling

[Charles Peterman <peterman eecs tufts edu>]

I've been seeing the same errors, while running as root.  At first I
thought it was because I switched to 2.2pre7, because the two events
coincided.  Booted into 2.036 and saw the same problem.  

Oddly, enough. I recently switched from SuSE6beta to RH52 to avoid some
minor, but plentiful incompatibilities between SuSE and GNOME.  Two days
have gone by and I still haven't been able to get GNOME to build on RH52.

Sigh....
