Subject: bug#33689: Gzip compilation failure
Date: Sun, 9 Dec 2018 17:00:15 -0800

To debug this, it's helpful to see the preprocessor output. Please try building 
with this command.

make V=1

Suppose the last compilation (i.e., the one that failed) looks like this:

gcc *FLAGS* -c -o gzip.o gzip.c

where *FLAGS* stands for a lot of compiler flags. Then preprocess gzip.c instead 
of compiling it, by running this command:

gcc *FLAGS* -E gzip.c >gzip.i

where *FLAGS* is the same as before. That is, use '-E' rather than '-c -o 
gzip.o', and send the output to gzip.i. Then, please compress gzip.i and reply 
to this email with gzip.i.gz as an attachment.
