seems to be a gcc3 bug

[Comment 2 Brandy Westcott (RETIRED) 2003-10-29 22:31:28 UTC]

This error occurs when 'png' is not set in USE flags. Without png in
USE flags the xv-3.10a-naz-gentoo patch is not applied. One of the
purposes of this patch is to set up a nice gcc environment for xv.

[Comment 3 Brandy Westcott (RETIRED) 2003-10-29 22:34:06 UTC]

Created attachment 19962 [details, diff]
proposed xv-3.10a-no_png patch

This patch only needs to be applied when png is not in USE flags.

[Comment 4 Maurice van der Pot (RETIRED) 2004-12-15 10:42:41 UTC]

Is this bug still valid? Does it occur with gcc-3.3.4 or later as well?

[Comment 5 Tavis Ormandy (RETIRED) 2005-11-28 15:50:01 UTC]

we use a new patchset now, this is no longer the case.

marking as fixed.
