Encountering the same issue

[chribell]

I had the same issue with gcc-11. However, it compiles fine with gcc-9.

[akashsha1]

+1 to @chribell .. works fine with gcc-9, but fails with gcc-11.
I ran: make CC=gcc-9 OS=LINUX

[MGelbana-Incorta]

The solution failed for me at the beginning, but make clean made it work. Obviously I had some bad output from previous runs using my default gcc (i.e. gc v11).

in case anyone needs to figure out configure alternate gcc version
