Hi;

Is it very difficult to make a port build with a non-default compiler?

I reported a crash bug for inkscape-0.38.1 at the inkscape site and
they say it is too difficult to support the old gcc due to advances
in C++ support in the 3.* versions.

The bug report is here for anyone interested:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=933879&group_id=93438&atid=604306

There seem to be some other problems too... like saving as a .ps
results in a corrupted file... but I am not going to report the bug if
it may be just a compiler issue.

Thanks for your time.
