What strikes me as odd about this, moreover, is that the incompatibility appears gratuitous; the extra whitespace doesn't help anything. Is this a case of wanting to (eventually) use modern C features in the intermediate compiler? More importantly, what is the support status for systems like the one in question? Is it to build 3.4.x first, and then use that to build 4.x? Or is 4.x not intended to support it at all, hacks notwithstanding? -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28499
