all gcc's so far have accepted the following code,

64 bit Fedora 9's gcc regards this as an error, all the other gcc's eg
on 32 bit Fedora Core 3 have no problem with this.
I use this a lot in order to pass var args to another function.
eg I have recursive functions which take variable numbers of args
and redirect to user supplied functions to process those args.
for porting code I dont want to have to rewrite everything,
Yes, that is an issue, and even using the compatibility RPMs the new
includes seem to be used and old code doesn't compile properly. I have
set up a virtual machine using an old version (RH9 or FC1) so I can
compile what I need and link static so I can use the code I need.
