scary GCC bug (causes hpoj v0.91 crash)

[David Mosberger <davidm@napali.hpl.hp.com>]

There is a rather scary and longstanding GCC bug [1] which causes
instant crashes if a program defines a struct with function-pointers
and that structure happens to be "packed".  Why anybody would want to
do such a thing is beyond me, but suffice it to say that hpoj v0.91 is
doing precisely that.  The current Debian/sarge package for hpoj is
definitely affected (any attempt to scan an image results in an
instant crash).

A patch to work around the problem is attached.

Perhaps the hpoj developers can tell us whether it was really
intentional to have the #pragma pack(1) span all of <stdlib.h> and
<xform.h>?

Thanks,
