Use 1.2 - it supposedly fixes this as well as other issues.

Hmm. xen 1.2 still generates the same parse errors under gcc 2.95. gcc 3.0 works with both 1.1 and 1.2. Debian woody stock packages.

Grr.. This looks due to our cheesy strategy of copying the gcc stock stdarg.h into the Xen tree (so that we can then specify -nostdinc and not get other random 'standard' headers pulled in).

I guess the stdarg.h packaged with various versions of gcc are mutually incompatible.

Can you try building with 2.95 again, but first copy /usr/include/stdarg.h to xen/include ?

If that works then I can make a suitable fix to copy in an approriate stdarg.h.
