I'm not sure about this. Paul C. Leopardi and Guillaume Melquiond already
reported the issue, Paul also analyzed it here
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ublas-dev/message/676

In essence: setting -fabi-version=0 should solve the problem. It's now more
of a boost.build problem to support different configurations for GCC
versions prior to 3.3 and 3.3 (because -fabi-version is a new flag ;-(.

FWIW I believe to have seen a more serious regression in GCC 3.3 and filed
bug report #11198: http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=11198

Thanks,
Joerg
