>Description:
The net/gaim port does not build on FreeBSD 4.x because a C99 feature
is used in the Gaim code which does not compile with GCC 2.95.4, which
is the default compiler on FreeBSD 4.
>How-To-Repeat:
Build the newest net/gaim port (1.2.0) on FreeBSD 4.x.
>Fix:
Adding USE_GCC = 3.3 or USE_GCC = 3.4 to the net/gaim/Makefile file
seems to fix the problem. Whether that works for FreeBSD 5 and 6, I
don't know that for sure...
