Note that I am building Nautilus with Red Hat 7's compiler and haven't had
to disable the warnings. The key is that you need a new enough glib. Older
ones cause warnings with the new compiler. The glib I use is the tip of the
stable branch from cvs.

This error is due to having a too-old version of oaf. To compile nautilus
HEAD you need the tip of the oaf-stable-0-6 branch from cvs.

Not sure where that problem comes from. Most people who compile Nautilus
don't have to do that.
