error compiling r13b04: /usr/include/nptl/pthread.h:658: error: array type has incomplete element type

[john blair]

I am building the latest release r13b04 on a lin64 machine (RHEL 3.8) with gcc-4.1.1 and get the following error:

gcc -DUSE_THREADS -D_THREAD_SAFE -D_REENTRANT -DPOSIX_THREADS -D_POSIX_THREAD_SAFE_FUNCTIONS -isystem /usr/include/nptl  -g -O3 -I/opt/src/erlang-otp-r13b04/otp_src_R13B04/erts/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu   -I/opt/lin64/ncurses-5.5/include -D_GNU_SOURCE -fomit-frame-pointer -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -Wdeclaration-after-statement -DHAVE_CONFIG_H  -I../include -I../include/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu -I../include/internal -I../include/internal/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu -I../emulator/beam -I../emulator/sys/unix -c common/ethread.c -o obj/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/opt/r/ethread.o

Anyone knows how to resolve this?
