Compilation issues with gd.h on Linux 64bit

[Xin]

Hi again,

I'm still having difficulties with this.  I don't believe the problem lies
with the server being 64bit as I've read other people compile successfully
on them.

I've searched the archives and there seems to be a few posts concerning this
can't find gd.h problem, but no fixes.

Any advice is welcome.

Cheers,
Xin
