from gentoo, QA issues reported by portage which are merely copied gcc
errors or warnings.

on building pvgrub-4.2.0, the install finishes up with

Now a xen style build clashes with gentoo preferences or policies with
regard to the build.  I have just supplied the patches used in the
build of the xen-4.2 build so you're in the picture re its build,
reason being that I have managed to clean up about 1/3 of these type
 of gcc error warnings, and these are the ones I couldn't.


If you would find some value in a full build log, just say so and I'll
send one.
