I just tried that version tonight.  So far, it has taken well
over 30 minutes to compile junction_example.cpp, and it's still
going.  That's on a 3 GHz dual Pentium box running SUSE linux
using GCC 3.2.3.  By comparison, my test program with my library
takes less than a minute.

Our libraries are doing very nearly the same thing, though I
think there may be a little variation in behavior.  Nevertheless,
there is something about your test program and library that
requires enormous resources.

I'll try rewriting my test program to work with your library so
we can compare them a little more fairly.  I'll let you know what
I find.
