Problems with compiling bird 2.7 on Debian Squeeze

[Maria Matějka]

Hello!

It may be GCC; I have just compiled BIRD on GCC 4.7.2 on Debian Wheezy.

If you have an older GCC, it may happen that it doesn't support flattened
struct initializers (which produces this kind of compile errors).

I remember seeing some similar compile error on older GCC's some time ago
but we disregarded these as unimportant. If anybody feels that this shall
be checked in the configure script, please send us a patch.
