The latest gnustep-gui from the overlay at http://overlays.gentoo.org/proj/gnustep fails to compile due to _gcontext being listed as a @private variable. GCC issues a warning that due to the variable being private, this will become an error in the future, however, it looks like that time is now. I attatched the resulting error to this bug Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Sync to the latest gnustep overlay 2. emerge all latest gnustep packages 3. run revdev-rebuild Actual Results: gnustep-gui fails to compile with the following error: Expected Results: shoud compile just fine After a little bit of investigating, it seems that the _gcontext variable actually resides in gnustep-base/gnustep-base-1.16.3 The source file in question is in gnustep-base-1.16.3/Headers/Foundation/NSThread.h

hmm, why are you guys using this version from an overlay over the official version in the tree?
Yes, it is fixed in the latest portage builds. I used the overlay, because that's the first thing i found on gentoo-wiki.com I should look twice before using overlays. Thank you
