| Omit both -fguiding-decls and -fno-implicit-templates when

This has nothing to do with -fno-implicit-templates.

Note that -fno-implicit-templates has been broken since gcc-2.8.x.
I used it with gcc-2.7, but with gcc-2.8 and egcs it is impossible to use.

I am sorry to realize that I am too much de-motivated to write a
bug report due to the fact that my last bug report / request for hints
(http://www.cygnus.com/ml/egcs-patches/1998-Jul/0330.html) is completely
ignored :( by the C++ guru's on this list.  So much for "open development".
