this is just a warning, there must have been an error before this?
look for that in the listing, the warning says, you are being 
too loosey-goosey, but i'll compile anyway. scan back to the 
error line and address that line.

there must be some error line preceeding this?

i usually cd to the directory in question and try a direct make,
then seeing the line its gacking on, do a cut/paste so i am doing 
that line only til i get the error fixed.
