With the version in that patch I get the slightly different "error: initializer element is not computable at load time". Seems like whether you cast the address to (type *) or (void *) determines which error you get. This is with GCC 4.5.1 (powerpc) and 4.6.0 (x86). Maybe it's arch-dependent, based on available relocation types.
Also, shouldn't the array be of type "char" rather than "char *"?
Yes, you are correct, it should be a char. That may be the problem.
It didn't make a difference.
How do you make the declaration static?
you can't with this version of the macro. Are there cases where you need the buffer to be static?
I think you'd want it to be static more often than not.
