Ah, I see.  That means you have no idea what the build system might
bring to the party, and thus no idea what your numbers show.  For all
you know the files you took a copy of may include complete or partial
configuration for one or other compiler, yes?

I was commenting on the incorrect statement that you cut.  (It's your
style to remove text with out any indication and you prefer me to do
that in my replies -- which I have done -- but it does not add to the
clarity of the discussion.)

The errors you get on an un-configured or partially configured source
are not interesting (well, not to me, you seem to be interested in
them).  In particular they don't help answer the questions I asked.

Can you link to this file?  It would be interesting so see just how much
simpler this program is than the one you posted about.

It doesn't work for me.

Indeed.  Why did you think there would be?
