You sure woke me up! I thought that long unchanged code had suddenly 
decided to stop compiling. Luckily I looked at the log, and realized you 
had made a change, so didn't waste a lot of time over it.

What was SGI complaining about? That argument clearly should be const, 
and had been for years without problems.
