Hi Vivekk,

> I am getting to compilation errors for binutils-2.14.

FYI: This is an old release of binutils.  We are now at 2.15 and version 
2.16 is about to be released.

It appears that you have a bad prototype for memcpy() somewhere in your 
include path.  Both of these errors refer to the code in localealias.c 
looking at the return value from memcpy().  memcpy() does return a value 
so the error message is wrong, hence the probable cause is that the 
compiler has been given a bad prototype.

What happens for example if you add this line:

   extern void * memcpy (void *, const void *, size_t);

at the start of the code for read_alias_file() in intl/localealias.c ?

Cheers
   Nick
