gcc 2.91 vs. gcc 2.96

[Srinivas V.]

Hello

I have been trying to compile the suif1 library on my machine which has
gcc 2.96. Others have been able to compile the same thing on a different
machine which runs gcc 2.91. i get the following g++ errors during the
compilation:

fileset.cc: In method `file_set_entry::file_set_entry (file_set *, char
*, char *)':
fileset.cc:312: no matching function for call to
`file_symtab::file_symtab (const char *, file_set_entry *const)'
symtab.h:239: candidates are: file_symtab::file_symtab (char *,
file_set_entry *) <near match>
symtab.h:245:                 file_symtab::file_symtab (const
file_symtab &)


The only difference, I could see, between the function being looked for
and the "near match" candidate is the "const" specfier. Is gcc 2.96 more
strict about types that gcc 2.91 ??

  thanx
