Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:

I can't get no more output. It fails to compile, so building the ebuild isn't ok.

const bool SGRawValue<bool>::DefaultValue = false;
const int SGRawValue<int>::DefaultValue = 0;
const long SGRawValue<long>::DefaultValue = 0L;
const float SGRawValue<float>::DefaultValue = 0.0;
const double SGRawValue<double>::DefaultValue = 0.0L;
const char * const SGRawValue<const char *>::DefaultValue = "";

these are the lines of code those produce the errors above. I don't know enough C++ to tell what is wrong with DefaultValue. If someone knows, the solution is obvious.

A little patch to solve the above errors.

This patch solves the bugs above. But It means only to raise other errors. So I
think a better solution is to use simgear-0.3.5 instead of 0.3. 4. I think this
is related to a change in the compiler version used.

Other errors raised after patching simgear-0.3.4

These are other errors those appear after I patch simgear.
These aren't related to the previous bug, except for a thing. I think the
compiler used is the real issue, and that simgear-0.3.4 isn't compatible with
gcc-3.4.1, which is used under ppc arch. The next version, simgear-0.3.5,
compiles without errors on ppc.

simgear-0.3.5 and 0.3.6 are in portatge (along with the flightgear versions that depend on those).  please test and report in bug #67809
