stddef.h:170: syntax error before `typedef'

[Jonas De Vuyst <jdv foobar be>]

Hello,

I'm having trouble compiling a (currently) hello world program.
Including libgnomeui/gnome-init.h seems to be what stops it from
compiling.

To compile I'm using the command:
    gcc `gtk-config --libs` `gtk-config --cflags` -o test test-app.c
    main.c

With `gtk-config --libs` resolving to:
    -L/usr/lib -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lgtk -lgdk -rdynamic -lgmodule -lglib
    -ldl -lXi -lXext -lX11 -lm

and `gtk-config --cflags` resolving to:
    -I/usr/include/gtk-1.2 -I/usr/include/glib-1.2
    -I/usr/lib/glib/include -I/usr/X11R6/include

The error I get is:
    In file included from /usr/include/stdio.h:33,
                     from /usr/include/popt-gnome.h:12,
                     from /usr/include/libgnome/gnome-popt.h:10,
                     from /usr/include/libgnomeui/gnome-init.h:6,
                     from main.c:1:
    /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-linux/2.95.4/include/stddef.h:170: syntax
    error before `typedef'
    make: *** [all] Error 1

I'm running Debian Woody and have no problems compiling other Gnome
software. I tried uninstalling/reinstalling gcc-2.95 but that didn't
help. A quick search on google showed me others have had the same
problem before me but I didn't find a solution.

Any hint will be greatly appreciated.

Kind regards,

Jonas.
