Re: Linking errors with swarm i386 under i486-suse

[pauljohn]

These are warnings, not errors, and Marcus made gcc patches
available to make them go wasy. You can just ignore them,
really, or rebuild gcc.

There are patches for other versions of gcc than are mentioned
in that entry. In particular, there is a patch for gcc-3.0.1.
