Re: [Moose-g3-devel] compiling with recent g++ compilers

[Josef S. <js...@ya...>]

The problems with compiling using gcc 4.1 vs 4.0 stem from stricter adherence
to the C99 Ansi Standard. Code which slipped by under '-pedantic' in earlier
versions will no longer compile on 4.1 and later. However, code which compiles
cleanly on 4.1 should compile cleanly in earlier versions.

There doesn't seem to be any set of flags that allows this code to compile, so
the short term fix is to use an older version of the compiler. The longer term
fix is to fix the sticky spots in the code. I'll fork a topic on that...
