Compiling error

[W. Crowshaw]

Hi,

I'm compiling MOL 0.9.64 from source using the headers of kernel 2.2.19. 
I'm running into a compile problem with string.h header.

Sorry, the error is long and reads:

Should I be using a different set of headers?  How do I get past this problem?

Many thanks in advance
