Pan has no problems building with gnet 2.0.5, the problem was more likely
with GnomeICU 0.99.  Actually, GnomeICU 0.99.5 doesn't seem to depend on
GNet any longer (according to the ChangeLog), so upgrading GnomeICU would
make Pan the only package depending on GNet (only GnomeICU and Pan have
GNet explicitly listed as dependencies).

Here's a list of my experiences with building upgraded versions of
various non-ftp.gnome.org packages with gcc 3.3.3:
