This program compiles. But if you uncomment the initial value of 
empty_string, GPC complains with "initial value of discriminated schema 
type is of wrong type". Things like this used to work with Prospero.
Is there a workaround?
Your program builds and runs fine in my environment. What version of gcc and
gpc are you using?

I'm running the gpc-20050331 snapshot based on gcc-3.4.3.
