Just lookin at the output of ./mkerrcodes, I get:

-2147168224    GPG_ERR_EPROTO
1    GPG_ERR_EPERM
2    GPG_ERR_ENOENT
etc...

So it seems that  there is a problem with the fact that GPG_ERR_EPROTO is
negative (i think). So integer size overflow.

I changed mkerrcodes.c so that it displays an unsigned int. The 2 changes
lines are:

  unsigned int i;
...
    printf ("%u\t%s\n", err_table[i].err, err_table[i].err_sym);

and it works now.

regards

Vincent
