I think that newer versions of gcc do stricter testing, that's why

your argument is, that the compiler has changed and now refuses (or:
refused then) to compile.
if this was for good reason, then the code should be fixed (in our
case:
to use the correct types).
if it was for no good reasons, one could try to circumvent the
compiler
(by taking hand-tailored measures)
anyhow, the problem is not the compiler. it is the header files.
thus the problem should not fixed for the compiler but for the
headers.
i guess any compiler since OSX-10.2 would probably bail out at the
very
same spot (and for good reasons).
could you try whether it works.
Looks like Gem built on 10.4 and 10.5, but I have a problem now on
10.4, so its my turn.
