[Expat-discuss] Compile error using cc

[Josh Martin]

You are using the C compiler that comes bundled with HPUX.  This compiler is 
only meant to be used to re-compile the kernel, and isn't really ANSI standard.  
You either need to contact HP and have them send you the HP ANSI C compiler 
package (I forget what the product name is, but that should be close enough), or 
use the GNU C compiler (gcc), which _can_ be successfully built with the bundled 
compiler.
