This won't do -- my goal is to build PSPP as a Fedora package; it
doesn't make any sense to build with different compiler.I'm trying to help you achieve your goal, and I'm seeking information. So I would be interested to see the results if you use an earlier compiler. If you find that gcc 4.1.2 works, whereas 4.3.0 does not, then we can be reasonably confident that it's a compiler issue. On the other hand if you change compiler you get the same results with an earlier compiler, then we know that this is a red herring and to look elsewhere. So, if it's at all possible, could you try an older compiler and let us know the result? For the reasons mentioned below, I'm reasonably confident you will find that 4.1.x or 4.2.x will work, but I would like you to try it, just to be sure. Looking at the gcc release notes at http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.3/porting_to.html seems to suggest that we're on the right track. In which case, which uses gsl and is compiled using gcc 4.3 is going to break in the same way. I think the gsl maintainers should be made aware of this (if they're not already).
