Problems with validating the ns simulator

[kthanasi@crl.dec.com]

Dear all,

I just built the ns simulator on Digital Unix 4.0D.  The build went fine
and I actually got an executable that seems to run just fine.  However
it does not pass the validate test.  I get the errors contained in the
addendum consistently:

Even with these warnings the simulator does produce an output.
However it is significantly different from the reference output
provided with the simulator source.  Any ideas as to why all this 
is happening are greatly appreciated.

Thank you 
Leonidas
