When building hwinfo-13.0, it uses the gcc option -Wno-pointer-sign which was
only introduced with gcc4. I don't get the error myself, as I have gcc-4.1.1
but I verified that it chooses that option to be used.
Snipet from "emerge hwinfo":
gcc -c -Wall -Wno-pointer-sign -O2 -pipe -g -fPIC -march=pentium4 -O2
-fomit-frame-pointer -pipe
And here's a link to see where the actual error "in action":

/me kicks upstream.
it would be nice if they documented things like that...

files/hwinfo-13.0-makefile-fixes.patch
uncomment the following existing line in the ebuild:
EPATCH_OPTS="-p1 -d ${S}" epatch ${FILESDIR}/${P}-makefile-fixes.patch
This fixes the compilation problem under gcc3
*** Bug 148241 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
This is especially important on hardened as gcc4 is not yet available on
hardened systems due to problems.
