hello paul,

i'm using slackware 9.1 / GCC 3.2.3 and i have no shame admitting i'm
still on a learning curve but i've since had someone else e-mail me
asking if i had found a solution because he was having the same problem.

its a recent clean full install (because i hate selecting packages in
the slackware installer!) and the previous release of garnome compiled
okay on slackware.

thanks for replying!
