Suspect code in Speech Tools

configure runs to completion with no warning/errors (flags being either) displayed to console.
The recommended procedure is to make a change to lines 18 & 64 in config/config.
In speech-tools directory I then examined config.log (which is supposed to be the output of the configure script) where I found the following errors (I'll show only 1 for brevity but they are all identical. Here is the requested error from config.log (sorry I said configure earlier, which it is, but the error is shown in config.log):

Code:

configure: In function 'main':
configure:1114: error: expected expression before ';' token
configure:1110: warning: unused variable 'j'
configure: failed program was:
#line 1107 "configure"
#include "confdefs.h"
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
int j= 
                #if __GNUC__ == 2 && __GNUC_MINOR__ == 95
                3;
                #endif 
; return 0; }

My recollection is that C would not like the ";" preceeding the return nor the embedded comment in the assignment statement. Is that correct?
As you can see this is a consequence of the configure script running i.e. configure:...
An alternative of this is that some mods were not made at run time to configure that should have fixed this to prevent these "errors"

My initial running of configure (since there were no errors on standard output) was followed by a make. Make produced (standard out) errors for -fno-shared-data option for the gcc compiler because that option is not available for version 4.3.3 of gcc.
This is yet to be resolved but it was reportedly fixed for the Debian distro but I presume it was not fixed for the .tar.gz files (Debian, I believe uses rpm or similar).

Just as I posted above I vaguely remembered that note you made about version.release.patch. The is what I was referring to as an alternate. My group & I quit using macros back as they caused too much confusion, we abandoned them. Yeh, I know the management mantra!
Since this is looking for an earlier version what can be done?? If I am forced to back up to release 95 of festival I going to junk this.

FESTIVAL(1)						      General Commands Manual						       FESTIVAL(1)

NAME

       festival - a text-to-speech system.

SYNOPSIS

       festival [options] [file0] [file1] ...

DESCRIPTION

       Festival  is  a general purpose text-to-speech system.  As well as simply rendering text as speech it can be used in an interactive command
       mode for testing and developing various aspects of speech synthesis technology.

       Festival has two major modes, command and tts (text-to-speech).	When in command mode input (from file or interactively) is interpreted	by
       the  command interpreter.  When in tts mode input is rendered as speech.  When in command mode filenames that start with a left parenthesis
       are treated as literal commands and evaluated.

OPTIONS

       -q      Load no default setup files

       --datadir <string>
	       Set data directory pathname

       --libdir <string>
	       Set library directory pathname

       -b      Run in batch mode (no interaction)

       --batch Run in batch mode (no interaction)

       --tts   Synthesize text in files as speech no files means read from stdin (implies no interaction by default)

       -i      Run in interactive mode (default)

       --interactive
	       Run in interactive mode (default)

       --pipe  Run in pipe mode, reading commands from stdin, but no prompt or return values are printed (default if stdin not a tty)

       --language <string>
	       Run in named language, default is english, spanish, russian, welsh and others are available

       --server
	       Run in server mode waiting for clients of server_port (1314)

       --script
	       <ifile> Used in #! scripts, runs in batch mode on file and passes all other args to Scheme

       --heap <int> {1000000}
	       Set size of Lisp heap, should not normally need to be changed from its default

       -v      Display version number and exit

       --version
	       Display version number and exit

BUGS

       More than you can imagine.

       A manual with much detail (though not complete) is available in distributed as part of the system and is also accessible at
       http://www.cstr.ed.ac.uk/projects/festival/manual/

       Although we cannot guarantee the time required to fix bugs, we would appreciated it if they were reported to
