New development: I tracked down and looked at the file NSEvent.h and
looked at line 72 and found this:


static inline unsigned int NSEventMaskFromType(NSEventType type)
{ return (1 << type); }

gcc says there is a syntax error before "unsigned".

This appears to be the offending line of code for when I include
anything else it compiles fine. My worry now is that NSEvent.h is
busted and as I am a newbie I don't want to touch the code. I just
want to get it to work.

I never touched NSEvent.h in my life. What is going on here?
