No, I needed to know if the functions had definitely been removed from
GCC (since the standard does not mandate them) or if they still were in
the root namespace. So I have installed GCC 3.4 and tested. A fix has
been committed, both to the main cvs and to the RC_1_31_0 branch, so
that the library looks for them in the correct namespace.
