Works fine for me on 9.1-STABLE (r246004), so it may be specific to
HEAD or some option set on some port that dia depends on or it may be
the compiler used. I think the latter is most likely, especially since
it may be an interaction between dia and one of its many dependencies
where one or all may be built with any of several compilers. In my
case, everything was built with GCC though some dependencies may be
using gcc-4.6. I don't THINK clang was used on anything relevant.
