Drop the "-fhonor-std" flag.  You will then get the default "fake std::"
mode and the program will work.  We are still using an old-style iostreams
library that is not in the std namespace.  There is a new, ISO-conformant
C++ library in the works, but it won't be out until GCC 3.0.

Also, please don't use HTML mail on the gcc list (and especially
don't send us MIME-encoded jpeg files!  They just clutter up the
archives).
