Syslinux - Oct 2008 - [Bugreport+Patch] Syslinux doesn't compile on Ubuntu Intrepid Ibex (8.10)

Hi,
because the only info I found on the wiki was this mailinglist I'm sending
this mail here.

The newest syslinux (3.72 and the git-version) don't compile on the newest
Ubuntu release: Intrepid Ibex (8.10). Folowing the compile errors:

[...]

After those errors the compilation aborts. I created the following patch, which
fixes the errors:
