Just for fun I tried to compile the file with gcc:

multiplayer_client_child.cxx: In constructor
   `MultiplayerClientChild::MultiplayerClientChild(TrueServer*, const
   CL_Rect&)':
multiplayer_client_child.cxx:28: no matching function for call to `ButtonPanel
   ::ButtonPanel(PLF*, const int&, const int&)'
button_panel.hxx:73: candidates are: ButtonPanel::ButtonPanel(const
   ButtonPanel&)
button_panel.hxx:51:                 ButtonPanel::ButtonPanel(Client*, int,
   int)
multiplayer_client_child.cxx:38: no matching function for call to `ButtonPanel
   ::set_server(TrueServer*&)'

Much more informative and without the incredible suggestion to add a 
reinterpret_cast to match mismatching pointers.

Like I said, don't compile it or add #if 0 ... #endif around the whole code.
