It claims to work around the problem (I haven't yet tested the patch
on bento, but I trust it works).  We won't have an actual gcc fix
before 5.1, but it is claimed to be fixed in gcc 3.3.  It might be
appropriate to remove the text about XFree86 being broken and move the
item to the errata (although we'd probably need a better
characterization of the gcc bug).
