FWIW, I had no trouble compiling with the gcc "2.96" shipped with Red Hat 7.2,
but building with gcc 3.0.1 (build from source) failed. It seems to have changed
the floating point casting rules, or perhaps the type promotion semantics, and lots
of errors were being thrown for trivial things like the arguments to pow().
I fixed a bunch of these by hacking in casts, but eventually got bored before it
finished.
Now, if the C++ language standard was sane, I could just look up what the correct
behavior should be and submit patches. But it isn't, so I won't. :)
