Re: Compiling on RedHat 7.1

[pauljohn]

I've not built one since the end of April, but as I recall there were
problems with gcc's processing of flags and it was necessary to install
gcc 2.95.3. I built rpms for it, and they are patched with the
Objective-c fix that makes the annoying warnings disappear.  Go to my
homepage:

look around for the right directory
