A long way into the compilation of hdf 1.8.1 and 1.8.2 on my
ubuntu 8.10 i386 and x86_64 boxes, gcc encounters the following error:

Here are my configuration flags:
export CC='gcc'
export CPPFLAGS='-Df2cFortran'
export CXX='g++'
export FC='gfortran'
export F77='gfortran'
export F90='gfortran'
export FCFLAGS=''
export FFLAGS=''
export F90FLAGS=''
export NETCDF4_ROOT=/usr/local
export HDF5_ROOT=${NETCDF4_ROOT}
./configure --prefix=${HDF5_ROOT} --enable-cxx --enable-fortran

And the compiler:
zender@virga:/data/zender/tmp/hdf5-1.8.1$ gcc --version
gcc (Ubuntu 4.3.2-1ubuntu11) 4.3.2

Any help appreciated,
Charlie
