OK, that seams to work in mostly all cases.

I try to figure out, what is happening, but the project is a bit bigger, so I 
might need some time. It has definitly to do with the header files, as I 
could solve the error messages on some times by rearanging the headers (ok, 
just a first trial and error test). But I did not find out, why this happens. 
I thought that maybe somebody has had the same problems, but if not, I will 
have to try myself. (But I only have a remote login to that machine, and a vi 
so it's a bit more time consuming :-/)

I'm currently writing some lines of code, to reproduce the problem, but I'm  
not successful (everything compiles without the smallest problem ... )
