[R-SIG-Mac] R-1.7.1 with new gcc-3.3

[Byron Ellis]

I also got the Aqua version to build though I ran into some trouble  
with the Debugging.h Carbon header. There's something in there that  
gcc-3.3 really didn't like. I commented out a series of innocuous  
looking #define's that caused the problem (for no apparent reason) and  
everything built fine, but I have no idea why those particular  
preprocessor instructions would cause problems.

I don't know if its just some weirdness with my Debugging.h, but the  
symptom is complaints about a bad left hand token during assignment  
IIRC.
