Re[6]: [Gc] [bdwgc] 7.2alpha6 fails to compile with clang (#14)

[Ivan Maidanski]

Hi Hans A.,

I've check the version of clang which comes in Ubuntu software Center:

clang version 1.1 (branches/release_27)
Target: i386-pc-linux-gnu
Thread model: posix

I've put a FIXME regarding this issue into TODO file. I hope someone could help with the workaround for it.

Regards.
