I'm trying to compile the lastest snap shot 'php5-200402191630' with Red
Hat Linux release 7.3 and am getting the following error:

/usr/local/src/php5-200402191630/ext/oci8/oci8.c: In function
`_oci_desc_flush_hash_dtor':
/usr/local/src/php5-200402191630/ext/oci8/oci8.c:841: parse error before
`*'
/usr/local/src/php5-200402191630/ext/oci8/oci8.c:842: `descr' undeclared
(first use in this function)
/usr/local/src/php5-200402191630/ext/oci8/oci8.c:842: (Each undeclared
identifier is reported only once
/usr/local/src/php5-200402191630/ext/oci8/oci8.c:842: for each function it
appears in.)

Thanks,
David
