egcs-2.x and MICO 2.2.1 ...

[The Hermit Hacker <scrappy at hub dot org>]

Morning...

Using the current (0914) port of egcs in the FreeBSD ports collection, I get
the following error message when trying to compile mico 2.2.1, with 
the configure switch --disable-mini-stl enabled.  Removing the disable
allows it to compile through, but then corba/koffice won't work.

Talking to the mico guys about it, they are all working with egcs 1.1, and
say that it works fine there, so their thought is that something in the 
STL of egcs 2.x is either broken, or changed drastically from v1.1.

I've seen one report on the MICO mailing list of another person using an 
even newer version of EGCS and also running into this problem.

Can anyone out there help with trying to determine where the problem for
this lies?  If its in MICO itself, if there an #ifdef EGCS_2_X (or
something similar) that can be added to the source to fix the problem?  Or
somewhere else I should check to narrow down where the problem lies?

Thanks in advance...
