Subject: [Rd] R-2.2.0 Compile problem on Slackware 10.2

This an error in a standard system header file /usr/include/errno.h, not 
something we can help with.

However, is --build=i486-slackware-linux actually correct?  Our manuals do 
not suggest you specify --build, and if incorrect it might just explain 
this.
