Unwanted 'const' in meta_api.h?

[APGRoboCop]

Is it just me or is that 'const' should be removed? It seems to not have it on the Metamod-P src version. When I removed those 'const' from meta_api.h starting in line 134, it appears to allow my compiler for GCC 4.8 work.

C_DLLEXPORT int Meta_Query(const char *interfaceVersion,
plugin_info_t **plinfo,
mutil_funcs_t *pMetaUtilFuncs);
typedef int (*META_QUERY_FN) (const char *interfaceVersion,
plugin_info_t **plinfo,
mutil_funcs_t *pMetaUtilFuncs);

Is this for a plugin? The docs say Meta_Query's signature should be non-const, but in the code it's internally consistent and the string really is const.

Yes that header file is for a Metamod plugin. ⁣Sent from BlueMail ​

We const-qualified these to avoid compiler warnings. You could try to get the same changes upstreamed to metamod-p. Since they are supposed to be ABI compatible it shouldn't matter, you can build your plugin against either.
