Description
The following is from Andreas Jochens in <http://bugs.debian.org/289122>:
>When building 'scummvm' on amd64 with gcc-4.0, >I get the following error: > >Looking for C++ compiler... g++ >Checking for compiler version... 4.0.0, bad >The version of your compiler is not supported at this time >Please ensure you are using GCC 2.95.x or GCC 3.x >make: *** [scummvm] Error 1 > >With the attached patch 'scummvm' can be compiled >on amd64 using gcc-4.0.
I haven't yet verified this bug, but figured I'd post it here ASAP so it could get fixed in 0.7.1 (I'm at work now and can't test it myself before this evening.)

This isn't really a "bug", rather we simply do not yet support the not-yet release GCC 4.0. Since we have not yet done *any* testing with GCC 4.0, this appears to be the "right thing" to me. We could add it to the configure script and print a warning like WARNING: ScummVM was not tested with this compiler version

Oh, I just noticed that the patch also attempts to fix some 64 bit issues. That part should be filed as a separate bug report, or a patch tracker item. However, the changes in scaler.cpp appear unnecessary, and the change in scumm/instrument.h just covers the real problem up.

Ah well. I just added GCC 4.0 to the configure script, and now let's pray it actually works... as well as a not yet released version of a compiler which underwent major radical changes compared to the previous version may work... :-)
