Just pushed to my Virtual Test PPA. This doesn't have 2011.03.28-387002-0ubuntu4 because as I said, I can't access the GUI on my Oneiric Alpha 2 VM because of the GDM freezing up. And I can't create pbuilder environment (apparently debootstrap is being a pain in the ass), so we'll have to wait 5 hours to see if the patch works. I'm saying there is a 40% that it'll work.

If Successful, I'm going to copy the source to my regular PPA and rebuild for Natty, just because.

The Original Bug Report: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3354213&group_id=204462&atid=989708

The report was closed for being "out of date." And it was kind of was, but I adapted it (sans one section that said it was only for 8.4.2, which is why I say 40%). And the patch was made for Fedora 15, which has GCC 4.6.0.
