This is a glibc-related bug, add it to the tracker (bug #270353). To solve it you either need to patch the program or downgrade glibc to 2.9.
Fixed in version dev-python/qscintilla-python-2.4 from qting-edge overlay.
Since 2.4 works fine I will close it as WONTFIX unless a working patch is provided Thanks
Created attachment 195086 [details, diff] fixes compilation
I would disagree that this is a glibc/gcc issue. It made use of the deprecated conversion from a string constant to char *. The patch is very simple, so I've made one. I hope you'll fix this since it won't compile on gcc 4.4 without it.
Re-opening cause we need to fix this before we mark 2.3.2-rX stable
-r2 added on cvs. Thanks for the patch Closing
