[PD] Still cannot compile Gem on Linux RH 7.1

[mik]

I think the problem is related to the compiler that comes with RedHat: 
gcc-2.96. I had the same problem in Mandrake.  I solved it by using egcs. 
Still can't run Gem properly though: I get the same message as Bastien (which 
has something to do with DRI, I think, and my particular videocard (Banshee)) 
Try to compile it with gcc-3...
