Attached is a patch which I just used to build coda with GCC-2.95. 
However, I haven't had a chance to test this, so someone let me know how

I had to remove a couple of 'goto's in once place since the compiler was
picky about the jump crossing an initialization of something or another,
and I would like someone to take a look at it and make sure I got the
logic right.

As for adding the -fpermissive flag, here is what I use in my RPM spec
file:

MYFLAGS="$RPM_OPT_FLAGS -fpermissive" make
