This is a problem with your compilation environment.

gcc's stdarg.h typically includes one of the va-*.h files depending
upon CPU type. These normally live in the directory
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/<platform>/<gcc version>/include, along with stdarg.h
itself.

Some things to check:

1. Is there a stdarg.h in /usr/include? (there probably shouldn't be). 
If so, does running the compilation command manually without the
"-I/usr/include" switch fix it?

2. Try preprocessing the file, with "gcc -E -dD" (plus the "-I"
switch(es). This should tell you what header files are being included,
and what macros are being defined.
