cc -mcpu=i586 -O3 -pipe  -DDOJPEG -Ijpeg -DDOTIFF -Itiff -DDOPDS         -c 
xv.c 
In file included from xv.c:11: 
xv.h:119: conflicting types for `sys_errlist' 
/usr/include/bits/sys_errlist.h:28: previous declaration of `sys_errlist' 
make: *** [xv.o] Error 1 
 
After commenting out the define of sys_errlist, the compile finishes up to 
linking: 
cc -o xv -mcpu=i586 -O3 -pipe  -DDOJPEG -Ijpeg -DDOTIFF -Itiff -DDOPDS

cannot find -lX11 
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status 
 
After adding -L/usr/X11R6/lib to LIBS in the Makefile, it completes 
sucessfully. 
 
I am able to control-z the emerge process right before it starts compiling, 
make those two changes, then resume the process, and it completes successfully 
(with the following warnings:) 
 
xv.o(.text+0x7c3c): In function `UncompressFile': 
: warning: `sys_errlist' is deprecated; use `strerror' or `strerror_r' instead 
xvmisc.o(.text+0x207c): In function `xv_getwd': 
: warning: the `getwd' function is dangerous and should not be used. 
xv.o(.text+0x7bbc): In function `UncompressFile': 
: warning: the use of `mktemp' is dangerous, better use `mkstemp'

This appears to work now...
