I have been trying to compile Euphoria from source on Linux (SUSE10.2 and
Mandriva 2007) and found the following problems (in 3.0.1). I have just
downloaded the tar for 3.0.2 and a quick check shows the code is unchanged.

Problem 1.

In be_machine.c "conflicting types for SetTColor" and "conflicting types
for SetBColor"

Solution:
I added function prototypes for SetTColor and SetBColor to "Declared Functions"
section in be_machine.c

Problem 2.

Compiling be_rterror.c gives error "curses.h : no such file or directory".
on line 15, plus errors for lines 140,141,142.

Solution:
I deleted line 15 and lines 139..143

It seems that ncurses is dead but it won't lie down!

Problem 3.

In be_execute.c, be_machine,c, be_main.c, compile.e complaints that
"CLK_TCK is undefined".

In /usr/include/time.h CLOCKS_PER_SEC is defined and a comment says
that CLK_TCK "is the obsolete POSIX.1-1988 name for the same constant".

Solution:
I replaced CLK_TCK with CLOCKS_PER_SEC throughout.
I am using GCC 4.1.1, it may be different in earlier versions.
