Problem with EGCS 2.95.2

[jepollock at my-deja dot com]

Hello, hopefully I've found the right newsgroup.  If this
isn't it, I apologize.

I'm having some problems getting the following code to compile
under EGCS 2.95.2:
 foo(string **prefixes) {
*prefixes = new (string[numEntries]);
}

gcc -v
Reading specs from
/opt/gcc/lib/gcc-lib/hppa1.1-hp-hpux10.20/2.95.2/specs
gcc version 2.95.2 19991024 (release)

I get the following error:
acsCompilerDBConnection.cc:1006: sorry, not implemented: initializer
contains unrecognized tree code

I've seen mention of this on Debian, and in the EGCS mailing list,
but there is no mention of what the error actually means, just
people asking for help.

If anyone out there knows what this error message means, that
would be very helpfull.

Thanks,
Jason Pollock
