Many thanks for that.  Now I get an internal compiler error.  Sigh.  Using
the Debian-supplied GCC:

richard at raphael:~/compile/vlc-0.6.0$ gcc -v
Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-linux/2.95.4/specs
gcc version 2.95.4 20011002 (Debian prerelease)

I've got current security patches installed, but not general patches; I'm
just going to check to see if there's a newer one that I can apt-get.
Otherwise, can anyone recommend a known good version of GCC I could
compile?

And I thought my days of compiling GCC were over...  sigh.

Cheers

Richard
