Thanks Mettier, the patch has solved a lot of gcrypt noise. But yet it
won't compile..
The error is this:
network_buffer.c:149: error: expected ')' before 'val'

This is the line 143 before patch. But yet is a perfectly valid, here is.
bash-3.00# sed -ne '149'p network_buffer.c
static uint64_t htonll (uint64_t val) /* {{{ */

I'm using gcc 4.2.0, I can't install other gcc in this system right now.

Cheers,
