Created attachment 34556 [details, diff] syslinux-2.09-gcc34.patch A patch based on this post in the syslinux mailing list: http://www.zytor.com/pipermail/syslinux/2004-June/003643.html The problem was not fixed for 2.10, as far as I can tell.
Created attachment 34557 [details, diff] syslinux-2.09.ebuild-gcc34.patch adds the above patch to the ebuild
Created attachment 34558 [details, diff] syslinux-2.09.ebuild-gcc34.patch (alternative) It's a little ugly, but it's short and it works with 2.09 and 2.10.
Patrick, your patch worked also for 2.11. Thanks!
This bug also occurs with gcc 3.4.3 and the current stable syslinux (syslinux-2.0.9). Might we get the newer fixed ebuild marked stable?

new ~x86 version in portage should fix this
