gcc-3.4 no longer allows labels at the end of compound statements. And good riddence :P I made a patch that should fix the problem. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge alsa-tools 2. 3.

Created attachment 31761 [details, diff] alsa-tools-1.0.4-gcc-3.4.patch I replaced that horrible goto with break. It should break out of the switch-case and end up at the same place as the label was... ...right? It does doesn't it?
This bug also should also apply to alsa-tools-1.0.5 now.
The patch worked on alsa-tools-1.0.5. I just changed all mention of 1.0.4 to 1.0.5.
I confirm it (alsa-tools-1.0.5). Where is official patch? :)
This patch is so sound I don't understand why you haven't applied it yet. Please do! 1.0.5-r1 still has the problem.
Created attachment 34286 [details, diff] adds a semicolon on a new line, after tag next_cli_arg simply adding a semicolon in file as10k1.c, after the tag next_cli_arg, makes alsa-tools 1.0.5-r1 compile with gcc-3.4.0. And it really does nothing.
This is still here. Does a new bug need to be filed (with an updated version number) so this one doesn't slip under the radar?
Created attachment 38068 [details, diff] alsa-tools-1.0.5-gcc34-fix.patch Patch for 1.0.5. fixed via break, label removed. It just more clean from ideological point of view :)
O! I see that there is the same patch for 1.0.4. Sorry :)
1.0.6 has a gcc 3.4 patch.
