[Tinyos-help] About the tossim

Hi,
   I tried to use Tossim to print out the debug messages so that I can 
debug the errors in the program on motes. However, even though on the 
easiest program (Blink), there are lots of compilation errors when I typed 
"make pc". Those errors ranged from "invalid type argument of `unary *' to 
"../tinyos-1.x/tos/platform/pc/rfm_model.c:520: syntax error before `*'".

  I checked the initial error message aroused. It is as follows:

================================

In file included from ..tinyos-1.x/tos/platform/pc/external_comm.h:38,
                 from ../tinyos-1.x/tos/platform/pc/hardware.h:63,
                 from ../tinyos-1.x/tos/system/tos.h:144:
/usr/include/unistd.h:1102:2: error: #endif without #if



=======================================

unistd.h is the header file from the system and it really makes me confused 
about what these files in tos/platform/pc are trying to do (or complain)...

   I saw some post on this mailing list which has the similar problem last 
year.However, as normal, no one ever answered his post...
