How to fix these compiler errors?

I have this source code from 2001 that I would like to compile.

It gives this:

$ make
g++ -O99 -Wall -DLINUX -pedantic   -c -o audio.o audio.cpp
In file included from audio.cpp:7:

audio.h contains

#ifndef _AUDIO_H_
#define _AUDIO_H_

#include <stdlib.h>
#include "mad.h"

namespace audio {
  class stream {
  private:
    char* Buffer;
    size_t BufferSize, BufferPos;
    struct mad_decoder Decoder;

    friend enum mad_flow input(void* Data, struct mad_stream* MadStream);
    friend enum mad_flow output(void* Data, const struct mad_header* Header,
                struct mad_pcm* PCM);
    friend enum mad_flow error(void* Data, struct mad_stream* MadStream,
                   struct mad_frame* Frame);

  public:
    stream(const char* FileName);
    ~stream();

    void play();
  };
}

#endif

Update:

The problem seams to be that mad_flow can't been seen. If I look in mad.h, then mad_flow is declared there.

If I just copy/paste

  enum mad_flow {
    MAD_FLOW_CONTINUE = 0x0000,
    MAD_FLOW_STOP     = 0x0010,
    MAD_FLOW_BREAK    = 0x0011,
    MAD_FLOW_IGNORE   = 0x0020
  };

from mad.h the error goes away (and new errors occur).

So how do I make mad_flow available?

Regarding:

I have tried to just insert

enum mad_flow {};

... a correct forward declaration of the type mad_flow would be:

enum mad_flow ;

But you should really be asking yourself why the declaration or definition is not already visible since the forward declaration is probably a bit of a kludge. Are all the necessary headers included?

[---edit---]

In response to Johannes Schaub's comment, here's a compilable example of a forward declared enum:

enum mad_flow ;             // forward declaration

void f( mad_flow& arg ) ;   // forward declaration of function 
                            // using incomplete type

int main()
{
    mad_flow x ;            // Declaration using incomplete type

    f( x ) ;                // Function call using incomplete enum object
}

enum mad_flow               // Completion of the definition
{
    VALUE1,
    VALUE2
} ;

void f( mad_flow& arg )
{
    arg = VALUE1 ;          // Use of value from complete definition
}

I downloaded the source archive from https://docs.google.com/leaf?id=0BzqFMbU_9R0YMDI5ZjYzNDAtMTNkZC00YzYwLWE3N2UtYTFmNjdlM2ZiYTg5&hl=en_GB. In the INSTALL, it says:

You need libpng >= 1.0.6, esound-devel and Mesa >= 3.3 to compile this. These can be found at <URI:http://home.online.no/~loop/tsunami.html>. Future update can also be found here.

Make:
make all

Run:
./demo

So make sure you have all the dependencies before you run make all. Unfortunately, the url provided in the INSTALL file is a broken link so you'll have to try to find the listed dependencies elsewhere on the web.
