problem compiling SFS with gcc 4.0 (fedora core 4)

[Nikolaos Michalakis]

Hi,

I 've downloaded SFS from CVS and trying to compile it for Fedora Core 4.
gcc 4.0 seems to be very picky and I constantly get compilation errors so I
have to modify the source
to move on. Has anyone succeeded compiling SFS with gcc 4.0?

I am currently stuck on this error and I can't track it down:
if /bin/sh ../libtool --tag=CXX --mode=compile g++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I.
-I.. -I/usr/include/db4 -DSLEEPYCAT -I.. -I../async -I../arpc -I../crypt
-I../sfsmisc -I../sfsrodb -I../adb -I../svc -I../svc
-DEXECDIR=\"/usr/local/lib/sfs-0.8pre\" -DETCDIR=\"/etc/sfs\"
-DDATADIR=\"/usr/local/share/sfs\" -DPIDDIR=\"/var/run\"
-DSFSDIR=\"/var/sfs\" -g -O2 -Wall -Werror -MT modalg.lo -MD -MP -MF
".deps/modalg.Tpo" -c -o modalg.lo modalg.C; \
then mv -f ".deps/modalg.Tpo" ".deps/modalg.Plo"; else rm -f
".deps/modalg.Tpo"; exit 1; fi

Any help would be most welcome

I worked around this with the patch below. Altough I cannot
see how this could break things, I'm not sure if this is the
right solution.
