GNU C++ Compiler Problem

[H. Brown Cribbs, III]

Raj:
   GNU C++ 2.7.2 cannot handle templates yet.  I too have
made that mistake and its a little irksome.  The next release
(version 2.8.0) is supposed to handle templates better.  For
now internal compiler errors, even for simple, straightforward
templates have a tendency of cropping up.

My only solution has been to generate concrete classes instead.
Sorry to hear someone else is having similar problems.

Sincerely,
Brown Cribbs
