File is sys/idl/coyotos/Cap.h. The following two statements complain:
@255  _params.in._opCode = OC_coyotos_Cap_destroy;
@407  _params.in._opCode = OC_coyotos_Cap_getType;

These constants are each defined as
   CAPIDL_U32(sig)
where sig is
   unsigned long sig = s->CodedName();
but Symbols::CodedName():
  unsigned long long Symbol::CodedName()
