Using the wrong GCC version. I've removed all backwards compatibility code in GDC so it only supports the current trunk (give or take about a fortnight being the current released development snapshot). I will be throwing something together for GCC-4.7 very soon as will be using it as a base for packaging for distributions and porting. -- Iain Buclaw *(p < e ? p++ : p) = (c & 0x0f) + '0';
