gtk+-1.2.9 build problem

[Ed Osinski <osinski courant nyu edu>]

Hi,

I get the following error when I try to do a 'make' of 1.2.9:

Making all in gdk

/bin/sh ../libtool --mode=compile gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -DG_LOG_DOMAIN=\"Gdk\" -I.. -DGTK_NO_CHECK_CASTS -DUSE_XIM -I/usr/local/include/glib-1.2 -I/usr/local/lib/glib/include -D_REENTRANT -I/usr/X11R6/include/X11    -g -O2 -Wall -ansi -pedantic -c gdk.c

I already installed glib-1.2.9 successfully.  In fact, I've been able
to install numerous previous versions of glib & gtk+ w/o any problems.

I took a look at gdk.c, and the error message seems to be correct;
there is a use of 'equal_pos' on that line, and a backward search for
equal_pos doesn't find a declaration for it within the same routine
(i.e. gdk_init_check).  I used the "--with-xinput=gxi" switch at
configure time.  A search of the mailing list doesn't find any mention
of this problem.  Is this a real bug, or am I overlooking something?
