it's kind of hard to tell without knowing your sources, nor your build environment, nor the exact error message which would allow us to see whether your compiler or rootcint complains.

ROOT uses regular C preprocessor (CPP) macros which should not show up in your sources (e.g. a function called R__UNIX() is not a good idea). You can see what CPP made out of your sources by calling e.g.

gcc `root-config --cflags` -E $ROOTSYS/hist/src/TFractionFitter.cxx |less

(your code comes at the end, after all the #includes). Otherwise you'll have to send us some code that reproduces this problem.
