bug#9927: unexec/unexmacosx fails with GCC 4.6.1 on intel Mac OS X 10.6.8

[Paul Eggert]

Peter, does bug 9927 also occur for Emacs 23?  We'd like
to know whether this bug is a regression and thus is vital
to fix before Emacs 24 comes out.  Thanks.

Actually, nevermind---I just saw your message that even with this
change, Emacs still doesn't dump with gcc-4.6 on OS X.  So it's not
worth it.

Does anyone know if Bug#9927 exists for Emacs 23 as well, or if it is an
Emacs 24 regression?
