Just a point of information -- I've been using gcc-3.4.3 recently to compile a whole range of current packages without error; at least no error attributable to the compiler. So it may be old, but it's still serviceable. Richard Thanks -- Be Yourself @ mail.com! Choose From 200+

I usually just Google the error message but it's finding nothing useful with this one. Any progress? I did the same and found very little. There was a suggestion it might be a bug, but that's out because gcc-4.3 also fails at his point. MAC -- Be Yourself @ mail.com! Choose From 200+
