Hmmm... A lot to do with the recent import of gcc-3.3.1 as the system
compiler in 5-CURRENT, I think. Seems that gcc just gets stricter and
stricter on the C++ syntax as time goes by. Still, it shouldn't be as
much effort to fix as during that great long ports freeze before
5.0-RELEASE came out.

Yes --- a different patch was committed to the ports tree about 7
hours ago now. However you cut it, that problem is fixed.

4.8-STABLE does a 'make index' pretty smoothly. No error messages at
all, usually.
