Topic awaiting preservation: jni.h problem

I'm trying to write a really simple java app that uses JNI to access some C functions.

So far, I've got:
- my java source file (and compiled it)
- a generated header file (using javah)
- a C source file (function matches the prototype in the header file)

Now, when I try to compile the C file into a library with:

gcc -mno-cygwin -I"\\cygdrive\\c\\Program Files\\Java\\jdk1.5.0_09\\include" -I"\\cygdrive\\c\\Program Files\\Java\\jdk1.5.0_09\\include\\iwn32" -Wl,--add-stdcall-alias -shared -o simple.dll simple.c

I get roughly 2000 errors/warnings in jni.h, a representative selection of them:

Am I missing something here? Is my jni.h file corrupt somehow? Any ideas?
Thanks,

Any sufficiently advanced bug is indistinguishable from a feature.

Nevermind... I just had to post it, read it back to myself, and magically the answer comes to me.

Bonus points if you can find my stupid typo though

Now excuse me while I go beat my head against a wall...
