This is a known problem with some compilers that don't like the lines

header_name header_names_normal[];
header_name header_names_resent[];

in the source file exim_monitor/em_globals.c. Because there is no
initialization, they complain about a variable of unknown length (gcc
just assumes a zero length, I think). In fact, these variables are
dummies which are not used by exim_monitor; they are there so that some
of the modules of Exim itself can be used in the monitor. If you change the
two lines to read

header_name header_names_normal[] = { "dummy", 5 };
header_name header_names_resent[] = { "dummy", 5 };

then all should be well.
