port x11-toolkits/py-gtk2 on alpha fails with gcc-3.4 but builds with gcc-4.2

[Anton Shterenlikht]

Just to let you know that the above port on FreeBSD 6.3-stable Alpha
fails with gcc-3.4.6, but builds fine with gcc-4.2.

Perhaps the build of this port should require gcc-4.2?


With 3.4.6 the error is:

Also, there are tons of warnings similar to these, with either compiler,:

Could not write function add_focus_tracker: No ArgType for AtkEventListener
