I had read the thread several times, but I’m used to commenting out in Linux using the # key, not //, so removed the # in front of the ‘#define LINUX’ instead.
The compile gets further now, but I’ve still a bit to sort out for the RPi.
The # in C is not a comment, is a required part of the syntax. When I told uncomment I mean leaving like
#define LINUX
thus removing the final n that I have put in the line.
a) 4-CPU direct comparison between 0.921 and 0.92 is not available (ver. 0.92 not having been tested with 4CPUs)
This happened because v0.921 came out shortly (less than two months) after v0.92. There were only a couple of dozen 40/40 games completed with v0.92 at that point; further testing was abandoned in favor of the new version.

After 850 games the gap has been reduced to 15 Elo, which is still well within the +/-19 error bars.

Such an issue might be very hard to confirm. According to the author the gain from v0.92 to v0.921 is only 5 Elo, and that would take more than 10,000 games to verify -- an unrealistic proposal at 40/40. If there is indeed an issue (which I doubt) it certainly doesn't show up on the single-core 40/4 list where both versions reached exactly the same rating after 1000+ games.
