Summary: the variable gidx was removed during Kenichi Handa's update  
of composition handling and it took some time to update all of the  
code using it:


On 2008-08-29  Kenichi Handa changed the glyph_string data structure,  
composition-related portion

On 2008-09-07  Teodor Zlatanov fixed the compiler error by changing  
glyph_string.gidx to glyph_string.cmp_from

On 2008-09-27 Adrian Robert updated this patch to approximate the  
behavior before Handa's changes

It was caused by a change on 29 August by Kenichi Handa to dispextern.h:
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-commit/2008-08/msg00731.html>

AFAICT it hasn't been fixed in HEAD yet. (The Mercurial mirror I use  
isn't updated terribly frequently, so it may have been.)
