[OpenAFS-devel] Re: [OpenAFS] Syntax error in afs_md5.h on FreeBSD

The cause of the error is probably the '-ansi' option being
added to the compile command line (MakefileProto.FBSD*).  (Makes gcc
reject the inline keyword, among other things.)

I've sent a patch to RT, against 1.4.6--openafs builds to completion on
FreeBSD 7.0 (probably will on 6.2, and has a better chance of working,
but I'm not that far along yet).
