Re: compile fails trying to install make

[Aamir Baig]

Thank you for your help Paul. I am using make 3.80, and I tried the  
following and it did work, however I did get the following warnings  
from build..

In file included from ./glob/glob.c:813:
./glob/glob.c: In function `glob':
./glob/glob.c:197: warning: passing arg 0 of `my_realloc' from  
incompatible pointer type

done
