I use Arch linux and tried building from here: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=21608 Here's the error (from end of output):

Welcom to the forums!

Please contact the package maintainer as it is unofficial and we can't possibly support it. Something seems screwy with your build system since realloc() IS SUPPOSED TO BE declared in cstdlib. If anyone has a clue as to why a distro is being retarded it would be someone willing to maintain packages for it. He seems fairly active so leaving a comment on the package page would likely get his attention.

Thanks, I am at the download page on xbmc.org here: http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?p=185738 How do I install since I am not running Ubuntu?

you install ubuntu or you build from source.

I think I solved this on my arch install. I manually edited the /usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/4.3.2/../../../../include/c++/4.3.2/cstdlib file and commented out line 96

//#undef realloc

I did this to compile boxee, and it seems to work.

the fix for this problem is to remove nvidia-utils package with pacman -Rd nvida-utils and installing libgl pkg with packan -S libgl, build .. when done remove libgl pacman -Rd libgl and install nvidia-utils again pacman -S nvidia-utils
works here and from what ive seen it works for most archers

I have an Intel GMA 945M card and I was able to compile the code, but it seg faults. So it was useless. I would recommend for you to get the ubuntu binary and run it that way.
