The behavior was deprecated.  You can no longer cast lvalues in GCC.

You might unrolling the assignment, so the cast is an rvalue, like one of
these:

d=(pointertypeofd *)((l_text)d+1);

d=(typeofd)((l_text)d+1);

where "pointertypeofd" or "typeofd" is the proper cast needed for the
declared type of d...


From "GCC 3.4 Release Series Changes, New Features, and Fixes",
"The cast-as-lvalue extension has been removed for C++ and deprecated for C
and Objective-C. In particular, code like this:
        int i;
        (char) i = 5;

or this:

        char *p;
        ((int *) p)++;

is no longer accepted for C++ and will not be accepted for C and Objective-C
in a future version."
