 Thanks, the config.log shows that the MCSC family isn't implemented in
 Linux/sparc.

 The upstream code has a different core implementation in this case, but
 they said this was mostly unsupported (as in not used anymore, and not
 maintained), however it seems this is what sparc uses for gstreamer0.8
 since forever.

 I think we can fix the GCC 4 build issues of this code path and return
 to a package at least as usable as it was prior to the GCC 4 switch,
 but of course the best solution would be to implement and use
 getcontext/makecontext and co.  I don't have skills nor time to
 implement these functions, so I'll go for the first option.

 I don't have access to a Debian sparc, so I would like you to check the
 GCC 4 build patch I've sent upstream at:
    <http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=312812>

 This would only bring us to the next GCC 4 warning though.

   Bye,
