With the command line from above with modifications for my own paths:

For whatever reason, although #include <cstdarg> is in the source file, 
when the Comeau compiler is executed it never actually includes the 
file. This must be a bug in the Comeau compiler but perhaps Greg Comeau 
has a fix for it.

Also even if one does an #include<stdarg.h> it never gets included.

I know this sounds preposterous but I have tested this out on my system 
extensively to determine that this is what is happening. I have no idea 
what the compiler is doing in this regard.

Of course this would explain the va_list error but I have no idea where 
va_list is coming from in the first place if neither of these files are 
ever included.
