Description Need Real Name 2000-10-11 04:17:49 EDT

When trying to compile some programs on RH 7, /usr/include/stdlib.h causes
an error to occure listing this as the reason:

/usr/include/GL/glut.h:202: declaration of 'void exit (int)' throws
different exceptions
/usr/include/stdlib.h:578: than previous declaration 'void exit (int)
throw()'

This error occured when trying to compile tux-racer, and also running the
configure script for compiling Clan Lib.  These programs have no connection
with each other, so I think it might be a problem with glibc, but I have
been proven wrong before.

It is illegal to redefine a function from the system libraries.  The application
code must be fixed.
