Only 1 error stopping build on Mac OS X with gcc 4.0

A while back when I was building Portable .NET on a Mac just for the  
fun of it, I came across an error when using apple's gcc 4.0.0.

As I wasn't using the CVS source I didn't mention it. Now I am  
building the CVS version of the source and the error is there.

There was only one error stopping it from building in gcc 4.0..

I changed os_dep.c:2215, replacing the extern with static and  
everything was fine.

os_dep.c:3410: error: static declaration of 'GC_task_self' follows  
non-static declaration
os_dep.c:2215: error: previous declaration of 'GC_task_self' was here
