Tested on gcc 3.4.3, mysql 5.0 from bk, with BUILD/compile-penntium, got a lot of warnings but no errors. 

bash-2.05b# gcc -v
Reading specs from /opt/gcc34/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.4.3/specs
Configured with: ./configure --prefix=/opt/gcc34
Thread model: posix
gcc version 3.4.3

bash-2.05b# sql/mysqld -V
sql/mysqld  Ver 5.0.3-alpha for pc-linux on i686 (Source distribution)
bash-2.05b#

As the title suggest, the error occurs with gcc-3.4.0.

Jonas, it's not our bug. It's bug of gcc 3.4.0
