I found this in the textutils distribution.
If you are building with gcc-2.7.2, when you run configure you
should expect[*] to see this line (along with lots of others):
checking for working const... no
That means configure has detected that gcc-2.7.2 generates bad code
for certain uses of `const' casts.
Although we don't make *heavy* use of const, I guess it's yet another
reason to not upgrade our gcc compiler.
