This isn't a gcc problem.  This is a problem with the header files, 
which are not C++ safe by default.  C++ requires prototypes for 
functions, the C language does not.  Or more specifically,
	void MD5Update();
means something different in C++ than it means in C.

You can partly work around this by adding -DPROTOTYPES=1.  Even with 
that though, there are still lots of problems with compiling this code 
as C++.  I get over a hundred errors using gcc-3.2.
