I have a Gcc 3.3 system, and apparently (by the search I do in Google) the
compile problem is present with gcc 3.3 or greater.  I found a link that gives
some info on the problem.

This link explain that some files needed to be patched in order to be compiled
with gcc 3.3.1.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Have gcc 3.3 or greater installed
2.  Try to emerge orbitcpp
Actual Results:  
The bug above

Expected Results:  
Should emerge without problems

Made some diff myself from those files using the cvs versions, it emerge without
problem but, later was unable to emerge libbonobomm-1.3.5 due to a function not
found, apparently removed by the diffs.

well, orbitcpp is still unstable itsself and gcc3.3 isnt officially supported, so this is very low priority.

Have you tried orbitcpp-1.3.7 btw ? (just bump the ebuild, don't think its in portage yet) 

[Comment 2 Mike Gardiner (RETIRED) 2003-08-27 23:34:14 UTC]

orbitcpp has been bumped to 1.3.7 in portage, could you try building that please? it also looks like you have very aggressive CFLAGS. try reducing them to CFLAGS="-march=pentium4 -O2 -pipe" and see if this fixes it. thanks

i guess the newer version fixed things.
