Unfortunately GCC 3.4.3 is the standard GCC version that is shipped as 
part of Solaris 10.  It's helpful to have RCS work even when compiled 
with 3.4.3, as it's often quite a pain to download and install a newer 
compiler.  The patch is trivial, so this shouldn't be much of a 
maintenance burden.  I ported RCS to Solaris 10 (there were two other 
minor glitches) and applied the attached patch to the "p" branch of the 
RCS sources on Savannah.  I hope that's the right branch for this sort 
of thing; if not please feel free to move it.
