In which line did you need the cast? (I'd be happy to add it)

I guess a temporary workaround would be to compile this very file
without optimizations. That should reduce the amount of memory the
compiler needs significantly. Try editing the generated Makefile and
look for '-O2' -- a quick perl -pi -e "s,-O2,,g" Makefile in that
directory might do the trick :)
