Compiling emacs 24.5

[Rich S <richs1561@yahoo.com>]

I am having trouble compiling emacs 24.5 on Redhat release 6.6
Configure appears to work fine:
./configure LIBS=-lncurses LIBS=-ltinfo --with-gif=no

When I run make, I get a compile error:

alloc.c:971:1: error: static declaration of ‘aligned_alloc’ follows non-static declaration
 aligned_alloc (size_t alignment, size_t size)
 ^

Any ideas what I can do?  I'm trying to upgrade from a very old version (23.1.1) and this machine has no internet access.
Thanks in advance.
