Hi.
Does anyone know why is the typedef for wstring is remarked?
 

from /usr/include/g++3/string :

extern "C++" {
typedef basic_string <char> string;
//typedef basic_string <wchar_t> wstring;
} // extern "C++"

I've deleted the "//" from the typedef and it works fine.
The problem is, I'm not sure why it was commented out in the first place, maybe there was a reason for it...
I've checked other distributions than mine (which is redhat 6.2) and it's true for suse 6.4 too.

Anyone?
