[Debian GNUstep maintainers] Bug#299178: gnustep-gui: FTBFS (amd64/gcc-4.0): array type has incomplete element type

[Andreas Jochens]

Package: gnustep-gui
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

When building 'gnustep-gui' on amd64 with gcc-4.0,
I get the following error:

gcc Functions.m -c \
      -MMD -MP -DGNUSTEP_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/lib/GNUstep/System -DGNUSTEP_TARGET_DIR=\".\" -DGNUSTEP_TARGET_CPU=\"x86_64\" -DGNUSTEP_TARGET_OS=\"linux-gnu\" -DLIBRARY_COMBO=\"gnu-gnu-gnu\" -DBACKEND_BUNDLE=1 -DGNUSTEP -DGNUSTEP_BASE_LIBRARY=1 -DGNU_GUI_LIBRARY=1 -DGNU_RUNTIME=1 -DGNUSTEP_BASE_LIBRARY=1 -D_REENTRANT -fPIC -DGSWARN -DGSDIAGNOSE -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -fgnu-runtime -Wall -fconstant-string-class=NSConstantString -I../Headers/Additions -I../Headers -I./. -I. -I/root/GNUstep/Library/Headers -I/usr/local/lib/GNUstep/Local/Library/Headers -I/usr/local/lib/GNUstep/Network/Library/Headers -I/usr/lib/GNUstep/System/Library/Headers \
       -o shared_obj/Functions.o
In file included from Functions.m:36:
../Headers/AppKit/NSGraphics.h:235: error: array type has incomplete element type
Functions.m:827: error: array type has incomplete element type
make[3]: *** [shared_obj/Functions.o] Error 1

With the attached patch 'gnustep-gui' can be compiled
on amd64 using gcc-4.0.
