:)  It does compile, when you remove packed.  After commenting out the 
unneeded semaphore union struct in basic.hh, the whole thing compiles.  The 
resulting raidutil binary spews out the same error as the one from the 
current binary port about "Engine connect failed: COMPATIBILITY number"... 
but that's to be expected.

Scott, is Dan's suggestion about using a temp variable and to stop passing 
by reference the right way to go?
