error: ISO C++ forbids casting between pointer-to-function and pointer-to-object

Hi QuantLibers, :)

I am trying to compile the QuantLibAddIn under Linux and I am getting the following error:

../../../qlo/enumerations/factories/conundrumpricerfactory.hpp:44: error: ISO C++ forbids casting between pointer-to-function and pointer-to-object

I have been looking on the net about this error and it seems that gcc behaves that way! I wonder if there is a way to do the same with gcc!
I wonder if someone have compiled this library under linux!

I have used the following tutorial. (the versions of all packages are 0.9.7)

http://quantlib.org/quantlibaddin/build_cpp.html

and the version of gcc is:

g++ (GCC) 3.4.6 20060404 (Red Hat 3.4.6-8)
Copyright (C) 2006 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

please let me know if anyone has some advice in order to resolve this problem!

thanks,

Eduardo
