# The cast-as-lvalue extension has been removed for C++ and deprecated

Unfortunately I don't know the proper fix, but I'm hoping I'll get an
answer to that question tomorrow in the gcc-help mailing list.
How about:
char *p;
...
int *q = (int *) p;
q++;
p = (char *) q;
That would have the same net effect and is accepted by gcc 4.2.3, which
does not accept the original construct.
Well, here is my first attempt at implementing your suggestion, but it
produces exactly the same compiler error as the original code. Perhaps
in the morning when I'm more awake I'll do better.
