| Well, maybe when Apple posts the sources for their gcc-4.0.1, we'll find some juicy gossip in it. Maybe not ... now that I've mentioned the possibility :)

"Nested Function support: We are deprecating nested functions (a gcc extension to C) in this release. For now, nested functions will cause a warning."
Unfortunately, it's not a warning, it's an error.
Removing gnu extensions from a gnu compiler, due to an Apple stack mangling bug with CFM, seems quite odd to me.

Apparently nested functions in a MachO app combined with a CFM plugin brought in to the process would cause major mayhem.

Before I downgrade to gcc 4.0, is there a command line option to re-enable nested functions?
Why were they disabled? Are they going to be re-enabled?
