[sldev] GCC4.4.x Was: SNOW-272 patch posted

Mike, 

If you are hitting the same problems I had there are some issues with a deprecated conversion from a char literal to a writable char *.  Be sure to add the following option to CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS:
"-Wno-write-strings" 

That will turn off the warning for the following all too common construct:
char *pczAString = "This is a constant string";

I did this through cmake-gui but it would be more correct to put it elsewhere in the long run. 

There are also some library incompatibilities, but I've not sorted these out to my own satisfaction yet...  

By the way, I am running Fedora 11 with g++ 4.4.1
