[plt-scheme] Error compiling plt-scheme 208

Hello,
I'm the maintainer of the plot collection. We had a report like this
in the cycle leading up to 208, and I believe Matthew was going to
follow up with the reporter, but I never heard of any resolution. My
feeling is that it is a problem related to gcc-3.4.x and some change
in mzscheme that was made since 207 was released. Our build machine
(running gcc-3.3 under Fedora Core 2) doesn't tickle the bug, so until
we can investigate with gcc-3.4, can you use an earlier compiler
version?

Regards,
Jamie
