I have been trying to generate a program for the "Make Controller" but I have
been frustrated at every turn. In the Linux IDE tools, I could not even get a
simple HelloWorld.c to compile without a multitude of errors in the include
files. I have even tried a simple command-line compile, but it, too, barfs on
the include files.

Here is the error log:

ed@ed-hp:~$ gcc HelloWorld.c

The file /usr/include/stdio.h is 30.3 KB and /usr/libio.h is 17.3 KB. They were
both last modified on 17AUG2009, which may have been when I installed one or
more IDEs or yagarto, or the gnu-arm toolchain. Do these file sizes sound about
right? I tried re-installing gcc, but that had no effect on the errors.
