That makes no sense to me whatsoever - L::g is a member of one of the 
template parameters - it would help if an instantiation back-trace was 
actually produced!  Is there any way that you know of to force the compiler 
to output the actual template parameters passed to 
tgamma_delta_ratio_imp_lanczos when it gets instantiated?

What about the other source files - are any building?  Any giving different 
error messages to the above?

Thanks, John.
