Assembler message "symbol already defined"

[jonas_berlin]

hi there,

first of all, although a did some programming once in a while, i'm not into this really well, so forgive me some stupid questions i may have or do not use the right phrases.

that said, here is my question.

i want to build x264 on a sles 10 server.

i had some trouble caused by a dual install of binutils (one older version by the distro in /usr/bin and another one compiled by myself in /usr/local/bin) which caused some configure-errors but i made that gone away.

anyway, now i'm running in a problem while compiling common/cpu.o . i get the assembler errors that multiple symbols are already defined.

i give you the complete output of the compiler output in question:

gcc -Wshadow -O3 -ffast-math -v -Wall -I. -std=gnu99 -fPIC -s -fomit-frame-pointer -fno-tree-vectorize   -c -o common/cpu.o common/cpu.c

i noticed the warnings complaining about differing libraries from header files. are these the culprits and how can i fix that?

if not: please give me advice how to track down the error on my system or build environment. that would be great!

thank you very much in advance

SOLVED.

adding -fgnu89-inline did the trick..
