Ot works fine with the version of gcc2 supplied with the developer's tools

Comment 1

[riscky]

see bug 71627

Comment 2

[Marcus Pallinger]

I could be wrong, but it looks like bug 71627 is for a crasher rather than
compile error.

Comment 3

[riscky]

actually bug 71627 is a compile problem

Comment 4

[Dave Vasilevsky]

I can confirm that this error occurs in Fink's compilation of Mozilla. Note that at Fink, we currently 
expect Mac OS X 10.2 to have gcc3 as the default compiler. 

Comment 5

[David Baron :dbaron: (⌚️UTC-4, no longer working on Mozilla)]

This is fixed in the gcc3 in the Jaguar beta release (6C75).  See bug 153525. 
It's also not a bug we intend to fix, since the compiler is seriously broken and
working around all the problems would be impossible to really do correctly
(although you can use the patch on bug 153525 if you want).
