I am a bit confused about your bug reports. First you state that you use 
current CVS, than you update and get a different error. Are you now 
using the actual CVS code?

The message you gets looks like your GCC gets confused when finding both 
a class and a protocol named NSMenuItem. I don't remember seeing this 
error message before and I don't have any glue how this could leead to 
the following error message. About a month ago Alexander Malmberg 
corrected a small problem reported by recent releases of GCC in this 
header file.

Could you try and update your GCC?
