We have a similar environment here. RCS instead of SCCS, pro*C 2.0, HP-UX. I have a declaration like this in my .pc file:

static char rcsid_var[] = "_at_(#) $Header$"

and this worked fine. After I saw your mail, I simply changed my variable from rcsid_var to ident just like you quoted and it did not compile. I dont know the reason at this point, I'm going to look into it.

I suggest you try with a different variable name (it doesnt have to be ident anyway).

Hope this helps.
