This is because of a little typo in one of the Minix .h files.  I
don't remember the exact details right now and my Minix system is
at home, but if you grep to see which file defines the macro used
in the line 1151 you'll instantly see that there is an 'x' where there
should be an 's'.  It took me ages to find this, mainly because Minix
is now so robust that I don't expect to find this kind of problem.

Cheers, Andrew
