1. The point DHR makes about Slackware having non-compliant header files is still valid:

http://lists.freeswan.org/pipermail/design/2003-January/004208.html

However, do we want to ship 2.00 with -Wpointer-arith disabled? Although enabling this during development is good for ensuring we have no issues with code, it may cause our users more grief.

Is there another option short of disabling this flag? A good way of catching these errors and recommending this workaround?

2) Slackware uses a BSD style startup script, instead of the assumed System V default. Can we improve our handling of this situation?
