Yup, that nailed it!  Make completes OK now, thanks.

I applied the memalloc.patch patch by hand.  If this is to be applied, notice 
that Line 200 #endif text string also presumably needs changing.

Alsa-lib was OK, but the configure was slightly messy in reporting 
'python-config' Command not found  before a more reasonable message and 
disabling python from the build.

If both the patches are to be applied, would you like me to retest the nightly 
build at some stage(which presumably won't need hgcompile)?  If so can you 
give the link again.

Thanks 

Alan
