So, which target are you building for, which host, and which
compiler version? (TARGET_PAGE_SIZE gets a value that depends
on the TARGET_PAGE_BITS setting for the target.)

The QEMU build system defaults to warnings-are-errors when
building from git. You can turn this off by passing
configure '--disable-werror'. (Note that that's a bad idea if
you're working on the QEMU source code, because you want to
be able to see and fix the warnings in the code you're working on.)
