I am loathe to make concessions for any one (non-conformant) compiler, but I
am particularly reluctant to base any decisions on the behavior of such an
outdated compiler. Please try your tests with gcc 2.95.2. It has certainly
got some substantial C++ bugs, but is reputed to be very much advanced over
2.91.xx.

Thanks,
Dave
