Answer 1

Your advice for updating the jconfig.h file to #define HAVE_PROTOTYPES 1 is only a band-aid solution for a deeper problem: jconfig.h is corrupted and has incorrect #undef for many important items your compiler supports.

The proper way to work around this is to follow the install.txt advice to manually compile ckconfig.c and have it generate a jconfig.h for you, then proceed to make, and make install.
