I got similar error when using gcc-4.9 when I built an old repository
that tracked upstream. Then I did "git clean -fdx" to remove all stale
files and rebuilt. It worked. Note that "git clean -fdx" is very
aggressive in cleaning up things.

After that I also tried building with gcc-4.4 and gcc-4.9 with the
changeset that distributed with Xen. It worked, too. I use Debian Jessie
to build stuff. I don't expect the distro plays an important role
though.
