Summary: ggee qread broken on 64bit

Initial Comment:
The type of the private function glist_getcanvas defaults to int, which cannot be cast safely to a function pointer, or something - obscure warning for a missing funtion prototype.... Can be fixed by adding

#include <g_canvas.h> 

to the top of ggee/control/qread.c, and making sure to add -I/usr/src/pd/src (or what have you) to the build system

excerpt from build report from launchpad.net:

""""
Our automated build log filter detected the problem(s) above that will
likely cause your package to segfault on architectures where the size of
a pointer is greater than the size of an integer, such as ia64 and amd64.

This is often due to a missing function prototype definition.

Since use of implicitly converted pointers is always fatal to the application
on ia64, they are errors.  Please correct them for your next upload.
""""
