  The latest version of g++ (a 1.36 beta) compiles this without any
problems.  It must have been a bug with previous releases.  You can get
a copy of the beta g++ from labrea.stanford.edu, in the ~ftp/pub/gnu
directory.  The file is called g++.xtar.Z.  There is also a beta
release of libg++ 1.36 there also, called libg++.xtar.Z.
