I've had luck rebuilding the srpms of things that don't yet compile
with gcc4 as follows (all on one line, obviously):

CC=gcc32 rpmbuild --define "optflags %{__global_cflags} -m32
-march=i686 -fasynchronous-unwind-tables" --rebuild
xine-lib-1.0.0-0.lvn.3.3.src.rpm

Make sure you have compat-gcc-32 installed; you'll also need a bunch
more "-devel" packages (e.g., ffmpeg-devel), which should come from
livna no problem. You need the "optflags" business because otherwise
rpmbuild tries to use a command-line flag "-mtune=pentium4", which
gcc32 doesn't know about; the above setting is just the default minus
that one flag.

Hope this helps!
