Oh, ick, that means lxml doesn't compile on quite a number of platforms 
all of a sudden. A fix to this issue in Pyrex would *really* be 
appreciated. I heard Ubuntu breezy (the development version) also uses 
gcc 4.0.

I'd be happy to test any patches beyond the one posted by John Palmieri, 
that might fix the lxml issue as well. I'll also try to track down what 
lxml is doing that triggers this behavior even with the patch applied.
