Or is it possible that gnash-sources define a prototype in a wrong manner?
I had a look at the files history, and found this:

So it's probably a boost error which will be fixed in the next release (1.35), which should be fairly soon.
Actually it hasn't been -- this was reported after we cut the release branch. To put this problem in perspective, gcc 4.3 is the *only* compiler AFIAK to give a diagnostic on this code. The bottom line is that we can't hold a release that's pretty much ready every time a new compiler version is released -- we'd never finish...and we already have enough trouble with that. Now, I'd be all for a 1.35.x to add support for additional compilers -- assuming *someone new* wants to volunteer to do the work involved. We have a limited number of people that have been willing to step up and run a release. All those folks are very busy, and so I'd prefer to move right toward a quick 1.36 release...of course new blood to help with that would be appreciated too. Jeff
