complex int ? A gcc-ism?

My attempt to install Julia with the Intel compilers flounders on

make[2]: Entering directory `/work/00434/eijkhout/julia/julia-master/src'

CC usr/lib/libccalltest.so

/work/00434/eijkhout/julia/julia-master/src/ccalltest.c(295): error: _Complex can only be used with float, double, or long double types

complex int r1;

^

/work/00434/eijkhout/julia/julia-master/src/ccalltest.c(296): error: _Complex can only be used with float, double, or long double types

complex int r2;

^

From all the googling that I've done, "complex int" is not legal C, but seems a gcc extension. True?

This looks like a test file, and the only place it ever occurs. Shall I just edit it out and call my installation completely?

Victor.

Yes, you can comment that bit out. Would you also mind filing an issue – we should #ifdef that bit out on non-gcc compilers.
