    I applied the changes, however g++ now falls over (running under vms 5.2):

I sent out a replacement for that patch about 1 hour later.  The bug
was calling `value_member' instead of `assoc_value' in the first
clause of the change.  If you don't get that chaser, let me know.

BTW, 1.36.2 just compiled InterViews, ET++, and libg++ today.  I will
probably release it tomorrow.  It is mostly a smoothed out 1.36.1 with
a few small, but important bugfixes.
