This commit somehow missed my inbox (and wasn't quoted in your observations)
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=revision&revision=1864435 Rainer, you observed in the commit notes; The GCC flag "-Wno-error=comment" introduced by r1855446 <http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=revision&revision=1855446> and r1850745 <http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=revision&revision=1850745> are only known since GCC 4.2. Since it gets set unconditionally, this breaks compilation with old GCC even when not using maintainer mode. Make the fix for maintainer mode more specific by using a version dependent pragma in the relevant two C files only switching off error status for comment warnings. Can we read this to say the comment error wasn't thrown by GCC 4.1 and earlier? Can we please revert, and add an autoconf test for the support of (or lack of errors against) this -Wno-error=comment flag? That should allow us to apply it to all friendly compilers and avoid adding it to other elder compilers.
