I had the exact same problem compiling V. Using gcc -E (only run cpp) I 
found out that the C++ String.h was included, not the standard string.h. 
So I think we have a case-sensitivity problem. Anyway, I 'fixed' the 
problem by specifying -nostdinc -I<C includes> -I<C++ includes>.

Does anyone know how case-sensitivity is handled? I had problems with it in 
combination with makefiles as well.
