Hi,

Please specify your GCC version. I can't reproduce the issue with a standard Ubuntu 14.04 version:
$ gcc --version
gcc (Ubuntu 4.8.4-2ubuntu1~14.04.3) 4.8.4

Regards,
Gary

@gibsson My gcc version is:
gcc (Ubuntu 4.8.4-2ubuntu1~14.04.3) 4.8.4

The master branch at the moment produces the following error:
cc -c imx_usb.c -o imx_usb.o -Wstrict-prototypes -Wno-trigraphs -pipe -ggdb pkg-config --cflags libusb-1.0 -DSYSCONFDIR='"/usr/etc"'

I'll add a patch to move the definition of retry to the start of the function.
