If it won't work with gcc 4.2 then it would be advisable to mark it as USE_GCC=34 or so. My own experience is that gcc warnings indicates some real problems (sometimes trivial or even false positive, but sometimes they can really cause problems). I think NetXMS is an amazing software and we want to have it, and it would be even better if we can ship an package that can be easily installed with 7.0-R :-) What's the timeframe the upstream developers will support gcc 4.2? We can fix the problems our own, but if the upstream developers are willing to make some modifications we could avoid some duplicated work. Cheers,
