[DGD] Nasty Problem - Please Help

[Noah Gibbs]

  If this is the multiple-inclusion bug it looks like, you can fix it by
putting include guards around the file include/options.h -- put at the
front:

#ifndef __INCLUDE_OPTIONS_H__
#define __INCLUDE_OPTIONS_H__

and at the very end:

#endif /* __INCLUDE_OPTIONS_H__ */

This'll make sure that no matter how many times you #include the file,
it'll only define stuff once.  This same trick is very standard in C, it's
just that less #include statements tend to happen in DGD (probably for
reasons of compile time) so there's less discipline about doing this.
