I've been trying to get an HID bootloader running for the 18f2550, with
a 4MHz crystal, and it should be in the lower 0x800 bytes, but I want
the 'boot' switch to be on pin RA4. I mostly program in assembler,
hence the probably basic question below:

Trying to compile the Holger bootloader under Linux, which was originally
compiled with mcc18, but under Windoze. I get (after creating a Makefile):

mcc18 usb9.c -Oa+ -p=3D18f2550
usb9.c: USBCheckStdRequest()
    95:	wCount._word =3D sizeof(device_dsc);
	             ^ (196) struct/union required
   100:	wCount._word =3D sizeof(cfg01);
	             ^ (196) struct/union required
   105:	wCount._word =3D sizeof(sd000);
	             ^ (196) struct/union required
   121:	((wCount).v[0]) =3D 1;
	           ^ (196) struct/union required
	              ^ (981) pointer required
	              ^ (981) pointer required

Now, wCount is defined as WORD, which is defined as a struct:

typedef union _WORD
{
    word _word;
    struct
    {
        byte byte0;
        byte byte1;
    };
    struct
    {
        BYTE Byte0;
        BYTE Byte1;
    };
    struct
    {
        BYTE LowB;
        BYTE HighB;
    };
    struct
    {
        byte v[2];
    };
} WORD;

Can someone suggest a solution?
