           Summary: Syntax error in triemodule.c. Won't compile with ANSI C
           Product: Biopython
           Version: 1.10
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows 2000
            Status: NEW
          Severity: blocker
          Priority: P2
         Component: Main Distribution
        AssignedTo: biopython-dev at biopython.org
        ReportedBy: jonathan.gilligan at vanderbilt.edu


Line 576 of Bio/triemodule.c is legal C++, but not C. Thus, it will not build 
with an ANSI C compiler. The following patch should work.
