can't build WIPFC with error on helper/entit932.txt

[graemeg]

I got the latest code, changed directory to the bld/wipfc/ directory, and followed the instructions in the INSTALL file. ./configure seem to have worked fine. 'make' run for a while and all seemed well, until near the end (so it seems). I then got this error.

In file included from cpp/xmp.cpp:37:
./cpp/brcmd.hpp:42:48: warning: explicitly assigning a variable of type 'Lexer *' to itself

Stop.

It seems the makefile needs to be tweaked so as not to try and compile the helper/* files.

Thanks for bug report. I will fix it.

Many thanks, it works perfectly now. Finally I have a native FreeBSD 64-bit wipfc executable. :-)
