This most likely means that you've set CFLAGS in your environment,
which is overriding the setting in the PCMCIA Makefile... and your
CFLAGS does not specify optimization.  These missing symbols are all
inline functions, that only get inlined properly if compiled with
optimization.

So, the quick workaround is to unset the CFLAGS variable before
building PCMCIA.  I'm fixing the Makefiles for 3.1.4 to not allow
CFLAGS overrides from the environment.  It was meant to be a feature,
but I've never really used it, and it confuses people.

Select this message: Bad CFLAGS during compilation

Message Administration

This form allows you to delete, move, or copy one or more messages. You can move messages by copying and deleting the original. The action will be applied to the messages you select above and all replies to those selected messages.

If you want to copy or move messages, specify the HyperNews path of a destination forum or message that all messages will be copied or moved to. The destination must already exist, so maybe create it first.

Path of Destination (a Forum or Message): (e.g. "test")

Notify Subscribers at destination
NO

If you want to delete messages (the default), specify that here. If you want to move messages, you need to delete the original messages; placeholders will be left pointing to where they were moved.

Delete Messages
NO

Caution: After deleteing messages (the default), if you have not copied them (i.e. no destination above), then the selected messages are not be recoverable.
