This was not the error that I got though, the error that I sent earlied
talked about `cannot inline' certain functions.

However what you described above is consistent, the inputs are const char
* inputs and the compiler complains that they are not? I'm not sure I
*understand* this error.  It looks like that you expect non-const inputs,
is that correct?  If so how do we fix that?

Clearly in Y2/Ylib.h there is a member:

        unsigned long flags;

In YEventSoundPlay.

Right...?  Why is the compiler not detecting those members?

This is similar to the first problem... why does it want a non-const
input?

Matias, I honestly don't see this as any evidence of something wrong in
Y2's header files, I only see gcc saying one thing and the Y header files
saying another.

Could you please elaborate?
