Or don't bother complaining at all, it's already been discussed ad naseum.
Furthermore AIUI it's semi-moot in the latest debian/ubuntu packages as
Pierre has added some form of compat layer (not sure why that was done
as opposed to the below, but... *shrug*...).

You know, given that libgd is being maintained by php developers (both
the bundled version and non-bundled version), you could also just make
sure that the "official" libgd has all those php-customized changes in
it, and then this would never have been a problem in the first place. I
mean, why fork a library that you're already maintaining?
