When attempting to compile the AS3935 example, which the author says was developed for the Chipkit UNO32 I am attempting to execute it on, I get the following errors

I also tried compiling the built in SPI library example, BarometricPressureSensor, and got similar errors. This leads me to believe the problem is with the SPI library.

Have you made sure you have the correct board selected in MPIde?

Click the menu:

Tools>Board>chipKIT>chipKIT UNO32....

Yes, I have the correct board selected, and I can successfuilly run a basic example like Serial Ascii table.
