Kevin,

Thanks for the patch! I've managed to apply it (with some changes),
however the following warning flags don't work with my gcc (3.4.5):

#. "-Wfatal-errors "
#. "-Wmissing-field-initializers "
#. "-Wmissing-include-dirs "
#. "-Wvariadic-macros "
#. "-Wno-discard-qual "
#. "-Wno-pointer-sign "

I was wondering if you knew which version(s) of gcc these work for so
that I can make the appropriate changes to config/auto/gcc.pm and have
them in the correct place.

Thanks heaps in advance!

Applied (mostly) in r16195 and r16196. I'll close the ticket as soon
as I know where the extra flags I mentioned earlier should go.

Thanks heaps for the patch!

I believe it was GCC 4.0.1 on OS X.
