If you look in bb.h at around line 107 you will see:

   #ifdef __GNUC__
   /* GCC on darwin doesn't like function in function */
   /* GCC on solaris does not seem to process a function within a
     function correctly */
   #ifndef darwin
   #ifndef solaris
   #define FUNCINFUNCOK    1
   #endif
   #endif
   #endif

As far as I remember I added in there '#ifndef linux' after the
'solaris' one and an extra '#endif' too (so there are 4 in total) to fix
the problem (well it gets round the problem, I'm sure there's a better
fix). You'll still get warnings, but it does compile.
