Template params in C++ functions

Strictly speaking, this is invalid C++. ListType::ElementType is
considered as an object (not as a type), and the whole thing is
considered as a multiplication expression. Then, `e' is not declared,
and the code is in error.

To declare ElementType as a type, you need to write

template <class ListType>
void DeleteList (ListType *list) {
   typename ListType::ElementType *e;
   ...

Earlier g++ versions accepted your code since »typename« is a recent
addition to C++.

egcs sometimes silently assumes 'typename' when no confusion is
possible.
