Strangely enough.
You can build Haiku's BFS? It's the same line there, if that's working, 
it certainly doesn't get any clearer.

I guess it's complaining about the "packed" attribute the data_stream 
structure has (and needs, although it should work on x86 without it). 
That doesn't make a lot of sense to me, as it only has to pass in a 
pointer - might even be a bug in GCC, although someone seems to have 
written that error message :)
Have you introduced any optimization flags that were not part of the 
build? Does a -O0 build work?

I cannot remember we have resolved the numerous build issues that 
prevented that from working, but who cares? ;-)
