I'm just checking on the status of this bug, so that all the GCC FTBFS
bugs can be fixed sooner rather than later.

Sometime ago, I looked at the bug in common/lpd_jobs.c, but was unable
to figure out what semantics were intended.  If the semantics intended
were a concatenation of the lines, I believe there is a function which
does that.  Alternately, you could just remove -Werror.
