I've been unable to build the dependencies for the ros-mavlink-pkg stack

I'm running electric under Ubuntu 10.04

I believe the steps are:

1. download mavlink from git (git clone https://github.com/pixhawk/mavlink/)
2. download & install lcm (svn checkout http://lcm.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ lcm)
3. download & install mavconn (git clone git://github.com/pixhawk/mavconn.git) [instructions here: http://pixhawk.ethz.ch/wiki/software/mavconn/start]
4. rosmake from withing ros-mavlink-pkg stack

I get as far as step 3, then mavconn fails to build with the following:

In file included from /ros/mavconn/src/core/watchdog/WatchdogControl.cc:31:

/ros/mavconn/src/core/watchdog/WatchdogControl.h:156: error: expected ‘;’ before ‘*’ token

I have libopencv2.3-dev installed, not sure if it's expecting something else...
