No, I'm using CVS HEAD. I just updated and recompiled with the same result.
I'm using MinGW GCC 3.4.2, BTW, sorry for not mentioning before.

s_unbindables_permanent is a static variable in a class named
virtual_control.

Oh, I'm not much of a C++ expert, as I'm sure you understand. ;) Didn't know
the difference between a container and a container adapter.

Thanks. Using it, the code compiles. I see it's mentioned as being a
workaround. Is it really needed for GCC 3.4.2? Why then did it work before?
(Not sure when I last worked on this code, might be as long as a month ago.
I can try to find out exactly when it stopped working (the CVS date, I mean)
if that would be useful.)

Thanks for your help,
