Re: gcc 3.1: bug with inherited templates when specified by namespace

["Dylan Cuthbert" <dylan at q-games dot com>]

That's very strange - maybe my use of "other" conflicts with something ( I
think I simplified it to "other" for the example because I didn't think
there was any conflict), please could you try changing the namespace name
from other to something else.
