When I try to emerge xmlrpc-c, I get errors about missing strstream.h. Might be due to gcc-3 problems. I'm unsure.

Created attachment 30380 [details, diff] Patch for compilation of xmlrpc-c with gcc 3.3.2 Changes <iostream.h> to <iostream>, <vector.h> to <vector> and <strstream.h> to <strstream>.
I had the same problem but I managed to overcome it by doing: 1. ebuild /usr/portage/dev-libs/xmlrpc-c/xmlrpc-c-0.9.9.ebuild unpack 2. cd /var/tmp/portage/xmlrpc-c-0.9.9/work 3. patch -Np0 < /path/to/xmlrpc-c.g++-3.3.2.patch 4. ebuild /usr/portage/dev-libs/xmlrpc-c/xmlrpc-c-0.9.9.ebuild merge
Should be fixed by patch (in cvs) attached in #64330, which fixes it for gcc-3.4
