816 proC on debian linux; mathcalls.h issue?

ehlo all

I'm trying to compile an app over from sol26 to a recent debian x86 system and I'm not having much luck with getting the precompiler to build some logic we require.

I've seen posts of similar issues with an apparent fix from metalink or from suse's oracle docs. Our dba won't share her metalink login w/ me and the suse doc seems to be long gone.

Basically the system has issues with mathcalls.h which in an archived post was fixed with this magical pcscfg.cfg from suse or metalink.

config:

debian stable, gcc version 2.95.4, binutils 2.14.90, oracle's stub glibc libs and it's 816 as you can see from the proC output below.

errors:

if anyone has any idea how I can get this recognized, I'd sincerely appreciate it.

Thanks for your time,
