The xmlrpc ext in php-4.3.11 isn't compatible with gcc4. It fails compiling in xmlelement.c Yes I know it's ancient but we're still using it in production for the next two months at least until we've rewritten for php5 This guy: http://www.mjmwired.net/linux/2005/10/23/php4-rpms-for-fedora-core-4/ has patched src.rpms for fedora3/4/5 I pulled the patch out and added it to the ebuild and all compiles magically again for me on amd64 Patch attached Patch for the ebuild attached (also includes stable keyword on amd64) Ramon
Created attachment 104922 [details, diff] patch for ebuild This patch adds the gcc4 patch, stable amd64 keyword and WANT_AUTOMAKE=1.5 to the ebuild

The bug is known and was fixed in later 4.4 series releases, 4.3.11 is dead and unsupported, only kept for compatibility purposes for a few people who really still need it... Go for 4.4.4 at least, 4.3 has too much security issues too. Best regards, CHTEKK.
I agree, but I am one of the few people that still need it until we finally make the move to php-5 somewhere next month. I hoped the bug would provide reference for others with the same problem. Closing it is fine as well
