[Dock-fans] GCC 4.3 and compiling Dock 6.2 errors

For the dock maintainers,
  This past weekend I attempted to compile Dock 6.2 on an Ubuntu system 
which among other upgrades uses gcc-4.3.2.  The problem is that gcc 4.3 
has been "improved" to simplify the system header dependencies

see link
http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.3/porting_to.html

The result is that several #include directives have to be added to the 
.h files in order to get dock to compile -- doing some searching of the 
archives this was addressed here.

The reason for this post was just to identify the source of the errors 
(handling of header files by gcc-4.3), and find out if an updated 
version was forthcoming, or if an updated version of the source would be 
desired.

Cheers,
