alright, `port compile issues raised with the adoption of gcc-3.3'

Looking at AbiWord2 I suspect this has to be pushed
upstream in some cases.
OK, here is a - ahem - patch for aspell:
--- prog/checker_string.hpp.orig        Tue Sep 24 03:34:52 2002
+++ prog/checker_string.hpp     Thu Jul 17 20:02:58 2003
_at__at_ -5,6 +5,7 _at__at_
 // it at http://www.gnu.org/.
  
 #include <stdio.h>
+#include <g++/cassert>
  
 #include "aspell.h"

It works on my colleague's and my current and my stable.
But maybe it's not the right way (tm) (to 'do-it) :-)
But should I post that on -ports, -current or send it to the
ports maintainer ? I'd rather avoid tracking -ports...

Yes, though -ansi and -pedantic are not that troublesome I think.
A real killer is -Werror.
But -W* is not the only source of compile errors - see above.
