Help with a build error on a linux system

[Patrick Mahan]

After searching the faq and the mailing list archives, I have found no
information for my question.

Release: X11R6.7.0

Building from source.

Build system: Ubuntu Linux (2.6.15-27-386 #1 PREEMPT)

gcc -v gives the following:

Using built-in specs.

Thread model: posix
gcc version 4.0.3 (Ubuntu 4.0.3-1ubuntu5)

I ran './configure' and the 'make World'.  The 'make World' is failing 
with the following error:

Now it is entirely possible that I have a mis-configuration problem,
if so I can post the configuration.  I suspect I am missing some flag
to gcc.

Thanks for any pointers,
