Thanks both of you for the help.  I even tried natively compiling on
an Altix (ia64) server and the same error occurred in psmouse-base.c
and md.c.  So both gcc's have the same problem:


6> gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 4.2.0

 81> ia64-linux-gnu-gcc --version
ia64-linux-gnu-gcc (GCC) 4.2.3 20071123 (prerelease) (Debian 4.2.2-4)
