subject: HPT Compile Error

Hi All,

I've been playing around with trying to get HPT compiled under Ubuntu 18.04
here, and I keep getting errors. Just about everything else will compile with
no problems, but not HPT.

When I try 'make all install' in /hpt, I get a bunch of warnings that look
like:

src/perl.c: In function 'perl_robotmsg':
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.26/CORE/perl.h:529:29: warning: ISO C forbids
braced-groups within expressions [-Wpedantic] 
#   define STMT_START (void)( /* gcc supports "({ STATEMENTS; })" */

Then it will exit with error 1:

makefile.inc:28: recipe for target 'perl.o' failed
make: *** [perl.o] Error 1

I know I have perl installed on that computer. When I run perl --version I
get:

This is perl 5, version 26, subversion 1 (v5.26.1) built for 
x86_64-linux-gnu-thread-multi
(with 67 registered patches, see perl -V for more detail)

I'm not sure what I'm missing. Is there another dependency for perl that I've
missed?

Thanks
