    operand of unknown size

Compiling 'shmem.c' produces the following error:

    UX:acomp: ERROR: "shmem.c", line 740: void function cannot return value


Please describe a way to repeat the problem.   Please try to provide a
concise reproducible example, if at all possible: 
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Compile the program on a strict ANSI C compiler :-)


If you know how this problem might be fixed, list the solution below:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
The attached patch will fix the problems.

In vacuumc.c, pointer arithmatic was performed on a pointer of type void.  The 
patch casts the void pointer to a character pointer, does the arithmatic, and 
then casts the result back to a void pointer.

In shmem.c, a function of type void returned a value.  The patch removes the 
offending return statement.
