Yes, sorry :)

Ok. Everything compiles now but all the tests in "testsuite" fail.

Moreover, I have still a problem with "configure" stuff: I have to run =20
"configure" and "make" in the Gc directory first, then run "configure" =20
and "make" in the main directory. Maybe it's because I replaced the old =20
Gc with the latest version (6.1) but kept the original =20
"Makefile.gc.in". I don't know how to deal with those configuration =20
files, I need some help there :)

Anyway, I'll try to checkin the changes made to Occ itself (the Gcc 3 =20
fix).
