I tried to compile Maelstrom under GCC 3.4 and it fails.

Created attachment 38368 [details, diff] Maelstrom gcc34 fix The patch simply removes the struct before "button" on the offending lines. They typedef'ed it to button, so the struct is not needed when they are using it after that.
Fixed in portage
