This sounds like you are trying to compile C++ source with the compiler
in C mode.

Aaah - that being the case, I think the fix is to install Inline::CPP from
cpan, and then in the script 'use Inline CPP' insteas of 'use Inline C'.

Iirc, there's a glitch in getting Inline::CPP to work with VC6. It's simple
to fix. At about line 44 of CPP.pm you can find:

#ifndef bool

Immediately above that line insert:

#include <math.h>

Cheers,
Rob
