So do the right thing in config.h:

/* Define as __inline if that's what the C compiler calls it.  */
#undef inline

(I agree the comment is not clear enough, it also means `define to
nothing if inline is not supported).  With some piece of luck Autoconf
will soon be released and it is my belief it should ease your work.

While I am interesting in your results because compiling C with C++
compiler helps improving the code, this is definitely the longest path
for you.

| typedef struct shifts

|   struct shifts *next;
|   short number;
|   short nshifts;
|   short shifts[1];

| shifts;

Huh?  Ah, you mean the field name shifts.  Well, I'll have a look at
it, see if I find something more intelligent.  But just cp config.hin
config.h and fill in the blanks.
