(Compare the -D_REENTRANT flag..) BTW, `-fgnu89-inline' will always be needed for the GnuTLS Guile code anyway, because even if we fix it in Guile and GMP, there will always be people trying to compile GnuTLS with a version of Guile and/or GMP that doesn't have the fix. > Or ask Apple to fix their compiler.

I suppose there won't be any problem when they ship their OS with GCC 4.3 but in the meantime, we either have to implement the above fix or to impede our software's portability as a sign of disagreement with Apple's silliness. I guess it's easier to stick to the former. ;-) (Of course, another option is to not build GnuTLS in C99 mode...)
