Attachments: Patch file to make windowmaker compile with gcc-4.1

Description Robert Marmorstein 2005-11-24 08:58:12 UTC
A section of inline assembly code fails to compile in x86_specifics.c.  The error is "can't find a 
register in GENERAL_REGS when reloading asm".

I found a patch from Fedora that I have modified to work with my gentoo installation.  I will attach 
it after the bug is filed.
