If you know the problem is fixed in egcs 1.1, why are you submitting a 
bug report?

for_each is a non-modifying algorithm, so I wouldn't expect it to
support reference types.  In fact, functors in general don't support
references.  At least, bind* functors don't.

How about:

    transform(v.begin(),v.end(),v.begin(),bind2nd(plus<int>,4));
