[Debian-med-packaging] Building AMAP with gcc 4.3

Dear Dr Schwartz,

I have created last year an installation package for AMAP on the Debian
GNU/Linux system. As we prepare to use gcc 4.3 as the default compiler
in our distribution, it was discovered that AMAP needed some
modification to build with it.

You can find the relevant bug report at the following web page:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=413477

Basically all it needs is to add one line in AMAP, as in the following
patch:

--- Amap.cc~	2007-03-05 11:29:54.000000000 +0000
+++ Amap.cc	2007-03-05 11:30:58.000000000 +0000
@@ -12,6 +12,7 @@
 #include "ProbabilisticModel.h"
 #include "EvolutionaryTree.h"
 #include "SparseMatrix.h"
+#include <climits>
 #include <string>
 #include <sstream>
 #include <iomanip>

I have the choice of either patching AMAP within our packaging system, or
simply package a new upstream release which integrates the modification. 
Could you inform me if you intend to do so ?

Have a nice day,
