As a temporary measure, you should be able to disable "warnings as 
errors" by removing the -Werror option in Makefile.common in the 
poolalloc directory.  You should still get the warnings, but the code 
should compile.

I've fixed this (I think) in Revision 145686.  Please svn up and try it out.

Are there other warnings that you are seeing?  Can you email them to the 
list if there are not too many?  I don't have GCC 4.6 installed on my 
Linux machine, so I can't test it at present.
