That was probably the wrong config.log. Reading the one from the
`nsprpub' directory, there are many syntax error messages like

/usr/include/machine/byte_swap.h:49: error: syntax error before "u_int32_t"
/usr/include/machine/byte_swap.h:50: error: syntax error before "u_int16_t"

Lines 49 and 50 of byte_swap.h:

static __inline uint32_t __byte_swap_long_variable(uint32_t);
static __inline uint16_t __byte_swap_word_variable(uint16_t);


Hmm, any hints?

TIA, Jukka
