how typical I found the answer 5 mins after sending the message:

The problem was I have not changed the C pre-processor from:

cc -E

to:

gcc -E

I did not have the sun compiler I think changing it to

cpp

would have solved the problem too

I am compiling tripwire 1-1 with GCC on solaris2.5.1 get the following error:

bash# make
(cd aux; make CC=gcc CFLAGS="-O -ansi" \
        LDFLAGS="" CPP="cc -E" SHELL=/bin/sh all)
(cd src; make CC=gcc CFLAGS="-O -ansi" LIBS="" \
        LDFLAGS="" CPP="cc -E" SHELL=/bin/sh all)
gcc -O -ansi -c config.parse.c
In file included from ../include/tripwire.h:60,
                 from config.parse.c:42:

I cannot fatham this. Have I installed gcc wrongly or not
configured tripwire correctly? I followed the provided
conf-svr4.h for solaris2. Does anyone know what is wrong?

Other suggestions included:

<casper@holland.Sun.COM>

Don't use -ansi. ANSI conformance requires the includes files that are
listed in the ANSI standard to remove all non-ANSI definitions that exist
in the name space accessible for C programs.
