[Ethereal-dev] 0.9.3 build problems on RedHat 7.2

["Clayton, Mark" <mark.clayton@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I apologize if this has already come up and I missed it.  I usually use
rpms, but 
now I think I might start a dissector, so I'm building from source.  Running
configure 
in the ethereal-0.9.3 directory, it fails to build the gtk and glib test
programs.  It 
has a problem with the __attribute__((unused)) code.  To fix this, I added
escape 
characters in front of all four parens like so:__attribute__\(\(unused\)\).
This got me
further along, now configure complains 'no acceptable ld found in $PATH'.  I
tried
running configure with both --with-gnu-ld and --without-gnu-ld to see if it
makes
any differences.  Which it does not.  Looking over the configure script, I
found no
obvious solution.  Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this?  

Many Thanks,
Mark Clayton
