By modifying scripts/pnmtologo.c to add `const' to the declaration of the
linux_logo structs, I could keep the const.

However, this introduced a new conflict w.r.t. to `const' and `__initdata':
  - gcc 3.4.6 20060404 (Red Hat 3.4.6-3) for ia32 needs xxx_data[] and
    xxx_clut[] to be const too, else it complains about a section type conflict
  - ppu-gcc 4.1.0 20060304 (Red Hat 4.1.0-3) for ppc64 needs xxx_data[] and
    xxx_clut[] to be non-const, else it complains about a section type conflict

Anyone with a suggestion how to fix this? Keep everything non-const for now?
Add tests for specific compiler versions (I assume this is a gcc 3.x vs. 4.x
issue?)?

Thanks in advance!

Gr{oetje,eeting}s,
