Description:
Compiling latest Falcon on SLES 9 leads to compile error:

cc1plus: error: unrecognized option `-Wno-invalid-offsetof'

How to repeat:
Compile latest Falcon on SLES 9 or a system with gcc < 3.3

Suggested fix:
Make the -Wno-invalid-offsetof flag conditional

Does the "invalid use of offsetof" show up with gcc < 3.3 ?

A fix to the build system should fix this. It is pushed to the falcon tree.

Too quick on the trigger. Should not have closed it. Put into state documenting.
