The same with i386-linux (with staticaly linked libs for *xdvi.bin).

I have only some warnigs concerning mostly info:
gcc -DINFODIR=\"/usr/TeX/info\" -DLOCALEDIR=\"/usr/TeX/share/locale\" -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -I. -I../lib -I../intl -I.. -I.    -g -O2 -c `test -f 'info.c' || echo './'`info.c
info.c: In function `init_messages':
info.c:632: warning: assignment discards `const' from pointer target type
info.c:633: warning: assignment discards `const' from pointer target type
...
and makeinfo:
makeinfo.c: In function `misplaced_brace':
makeinfo.c:353: warning: passing arg 1 of `line_error' discards `const' from pointer target type
makeinfo.c: In function `main':
makeinfo.c:590: warning: passing arg 1 of `error' discards `const' from pointer target type
etc.

I have the same warnings for teTeX 2.0 RC1.
Thomas suggested waiting for a new set of sources, so I do not send my
compilation.
