I guess my system has been "upgraded" too many times.  I can't compile
the latest version, or even the version I was able to compile before.
It's complaining about typedef statements in stddef.h.  I tried googling,
but I could not find a solution to the compile problems.  Here are the
first few lines from "make", if it helps:

if /bin/sh ../libtool --tag=CC --mode=compile gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. 
-I./.. -I/usr/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/lib/glib-2.0/include      -ggdb -O -MT 
neuralnet.lo -MD -MP -MF ".deps/neuralnet.Tpo" -c -o neuralnet.lo neuralnet.c; \
        then mv -f ".deps/neuralnet.Tpo" ".deps/neuralnet.Plo"; else rm -f 
".deps/neuralnet.Tpo"; exit 1; fi
 gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -I./.. -I/usr/include/glib-2.0 
-I/usr/lib/glib-2.0/include -ggdb -O -MT neuralnet.lo -MD -MP -MF 
.deps/neuralnet.Tpo -c neuralnet.c -o neuralnet.o
