Re: [Pan-devel] compile error pan-0.14.2 lvalue required

0.14.2 is more than five years old at this point. I'd strongly recommend using 
0.133 instead. 
If you're intent on getting 0.14.2 to build, for whatever reason, send along 
output from "gcc -v" 
Older versions of gcc (such as those in use when 0.14.2 was release) may be 
more forgiving than newer versions.

Subject: [Pan-devel] compile error pan-0.14.2 lvalue required

I tried to install pan-0.14.2, but got compilation errors in the make
process.
The listing out of "./INSTALL" I got:

Making all in base

the corresponding listing (including some line numbers) of the
corresponding source-lines of pan-0.14.2/pan/base (61 till 77)

              /* operating on aligned words.  Use direct word stores. */
                while (n1 > 0 && n2 > 0)
64              {
                        if ((*cmp) (b1, b2) <= 0)
                        {
                                --n1;
68                              *((unsigned long int *) tmp)++ =
69                                      *((unsigned long int *) b1)++;
                        }
                        else
                        {
                                --n2;
74                              *((unsigned long int *) tmp)++ =
75                                      *((unsigned long int *) b2)++;
                        }

I'm surprised by these errors on a program that's around since June. I'm
afraid it will be my mistake, but I don't know where to search. Any help
will be greatly apreciated.
Thanks
