Seen :-) Yes, this way it's much cleaner. Incidentally, the problem of
base class forwarding you had here is common but I didn't notice it
was that problem when seeing bjam's output, I just saw that there were
errors in files other than the one I modified and thought to ask you
before trying further modifications and/or beginning speculating.
Also, guessing in advance that it wasn't really a parsing problem
would have been difficult, because Borland does have parsing problems
(a simple example is in dynamic_bitset's constructor from
basic_string, as you may see from the comments)

Genny.
