Any suggestions?

Hrmm...
What distro are you running? Did you update the code to CVS DR5?
Any idea about your compiler version? I will try to "replicate" on my SuSE distro I just bought :)

You must be on GCC 3.3.

The constant that it is complaining about is 0xFFFFFFFFCCCCCCCC which is obviously too large for a 32-bit int.

One of the windows developers was having a crash problem when a variable (according to vs.net) was that value. Which is not possible. We're looking in to how to make both side happy. Until then try setting it to 0xCCCCCCCC as I think that is how GCC < 3.3 is truncating it.
