Not so lucky here.

First, gentoo's epatch (package managed patching) choked on the first two 
entries... to the same place of the same file.  I combined them into one, 
and it applied fine.

However, that wasn't the only issue, tho the other isn't gcc 4.3 related 
I don't think.  glib 2.16 appears to be a missing function (g_assert) 
that pan wants from glib.  It was in glib 2.14 (I just redownloaded and 
checked the sources for 2.14.6), but not the 2.16(.1) I have installed 
here.

I'll probably revert to glib 2.14.x here shortly.

Meanwhile, pan compiled against 2.14.x as I had it installed before the 
update seems to work fine against glib 2.16.1.  I suppose it just hasn't 
hit the assert yet.  Either that or it didn't use it six months or 
whatever ago when I last successfully compiled.  But I doubt that as 
Charles hasn't been too active on pan lately, so I expect that dependency 
has been there for awhile.

BTW, I didn't see the gcc 4.3 pan patches bugged yet when I filed the 
above, so I went ahead and bugged it as:

It's cool, isn't it?  =8^)  No more filling up the mailbox (or gmailbox 
either) just to follow a few lists!  I don't know why folks use lists 
anyway.  That's what newsgroups are for!  =8^)  Save the mailbox for the 
personal/work/whatever mail (and spam).
