this is unrelated to your errors and has no consequences.. (it is
removed in 2.2)

I have no /usr/include/*/minmax.h on my linux systems (RH 6.2 or 7.2)
-- seems to be a "feature" of SUSE or something.  This is the source
of the problem -- you might need to find a #define to prevent
including minmax.h or somehow make the definitions of these functions
under Interviews match that on your system..
