Answering my own question Re: Compile of GCC-3.4 port fails on FreeBSD 4.11 --- Help?

Answering my own question, just to get the answer into the archives.

Turns out that the mingw port (gcc 2.95 cross-compiler for building windows
binaries) is the culprit here.  It installs a /usr/local/include/ansidecl.h
file that is picked up by the configure of gcc-3.4, and that causes the 
problem.  To figure that out I had to look for ATTRIBUTE_NONNULL on my spare
linux box, found it in ansidecl.h, then hunted down why I had an ansidecl.h
without ATTRIBUTE_NONNULL in it with "pkg_info -W".

Since I need the mingw port, I just temporarily moved ansidecl.h so gcc3.4
could build.

Never Mind.
