 The 'x11-toolkits/gigi' application failed to compile with the Boost-1.41.
 The application is known to build successfully with boost 1.39.

 The error message is:
 error: cannot convert 'const
 boost::serialization::extended_type_info_typeid<GG::Font>' to 'const
 boost::serialization::extended_type_info*' in return

 The issue may be reproduced using the preprocessed translation unit
 "saveload.ii"

 The command-line is g++43 -o saveload.o -c -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe
 -Wall -Wno-parentheses -O2 -pthread saveload.ii

 The operating system is FreeBSD 7.2-RELEASE/i386 [[BR]]
 The compiler is g++43 (GCC) 4.3.5 20091115 (prerelease)
