Bugzilla Bug 67345

compile with gcc-3.3.4-r2 fails due to incompatible type for va_list argument
in
libgnome/gnome-program.c.

Here is a patch:

wouldn't NULL instead of 0 work ?

No, the 8th argument is not a pointer.

va_list is implemented as a pointer on x86, not so on alpha.  The suggested
patch is correct because it doesn't make architecture-specific assumptions. 
The nparams argument protects against trying to use this uninitialized va_list
(it's at least as safe as using a NULL va_list)

I applied this patch, thanks Andrej
