char* conversions.

Reproducible: Always

1. emerge =app-text/texlive-core-2008-r4 &>emerge.log
2. grep deprecated emerge.log

Actual Results:  
You'll see bunch of warning messages about string to char* conversions in
libs/xpdf sources

You mean texlive or xpdf devellopers?
I'll try to send to texlive, cause xpdf looks like abandoned project

I'd say just send the same mail to both of them, just in case

patch applied, thanks

just a small note: if it doesn't get applied upstream and the patch fails to
apply in later version i'll probably drop it without warning because it's huge
and doesn't harm usability.
