The LEDA include is the "Library of Efficient Data-structures and > Algorithms" from the Max Planck Institute. The line it's complaining about in WINNT.H seems odd to me. The same case compiled with gcc causes a warning: x.c:11: warning: unnamed struct/union that defines no instances #if defined(MIDL_PASS) typedef struct _LARGE_INTEGER { #else // MIDL_PASS typedef union _LARGE_INTEGER { struct { DWORD LowPart; LONG HighPart; }; <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Line 199 struct { DWORD LowPart; LONG HighPart; } u; #endif //MIDL_PASS LONGLONG QuadPart; } LARGE_INTEGER; I don't believe this problem is precipitated by anything in pthreads-win32. Perhaps the LEDA code is causing the midl stuff (something to do with double longs?) to be included.
