Right, that's been one of the problems.

And that was the second problem. After removing /usr/local/include/ql
(which obviously had the 0.3.1 headers) the compilation went fine.

So, Liguo, it seems /usr/local/include is searched first, but that's
what I would expect if I were to download cvs-current and compile that.

Thanks a lot, guys, on to using it then...
