Please don't quote sigs.

Please don't top-post (rearranged)

Well, the offending template doesn't actually appear to be used in the 
code, so I guess gcc 3.2.3 just ignored it; I've had a brief look if 
there are any flags for gcc that might suppress checking of templates 
that are never instantiated, but couldn't find anything that works. Sorry,
