PVM compilation problem - Open SUSE 10.1 GCC 4.1.0

[sobczak...@gmail.com]

I tried to compile PMV 3.4.5 with gcc 4.1.0 under Open SUSE 10.1 and I
got this statement:

In file included from ../../src/host.c:227:
../../src/global.h:321: error: array type has incomplete element type
../../src/global.h:323: error: array type has incomplete element type

It refferences to the code (globals.c:208):

struct Pvmtevdid pvmtevdidlist[] =
{
/* TEV_DID_AN */ "AN", "PVM Architecture Name",
/* TEV_DID_AC */ "AC", "PVM Architecture Code",
...

Could you help me to compile PVM?

I had the same problem. GCC has gotten tougher on code that is not ANSI
standard. Finally got everything to compile and all the sample problems
to run. Now if I can just get my production code to work properly...

Here is the output from a "diff" comparison. Note that these modifications
produced a working version of PVM on my system, which is running OpenSUSE
10.1 and GCC 4.1.0. I make no guarantees, but hopefully this will get you
and others going in the right direction.
