I'd be interested in getting this to work in gnulib, but unfortunately
it doesn't work yet with RCS so let's fix that first.

Actually, GCC 3.4.3 *can* compile that. It just can't compile longer
programs with that code in it. Which, unfortunately, means that
bleeding-edge RCS won't build on Solaris 10's GCC, as the configure-time
test case succeeds but the actual compilation fails. Please try the
following program instead:
int
last (int count, int all[static count])
{
return all[count - 1];
}
int
last1 (int count, int all[static count])
{
return all[count - 1];
}
Perhaps I should also mention that the bug occurs with -O2 but does not
occur when GCC is not optimizing. This should work with the
configure-time test, though, as it's built with -O2.
