Makefile/code needs updating for gcc ver. 4.0+

[Arbitrary]

Just as fair warning, the makefile and the code will need a little updating. Versions of gcc at 4.0+ no longer include the "-fwritable-strings" option. The resulting compiler error is as follows...

g_game.c: In function ‘G_DoLoadGame’:

I'd fix it myself, but I'd have to do a little catchup on my programming before I would know what to fix. I did notice that the newest gcc compiler for linux does use the -march=pentium and -march=486 arguments instead of what was originally there.

Correction... the above error is if you remove the argument '-fwritable strings'. If it is still included, the compiler mentions right away that it doesn't understand the option and halts the creation of the program.

That's the source code to Legacy 1.43, not 2.0.

The 2.0 source should compile out of the box and can be found here:
https://doomlegacy.svn.sourceforge.n...y/legacy/trunk

Is there a way to fix this to get 1.43 to compile?

Is there any way we could get a new legacy 2.0 win32 binary? :P
