 As the bastring.cc is supplied in the include directory I compiled it
as a template class...

------
#include <string>

template class basic_string<char>;

#include <std/bastring.cc>
------

and then tried to compile a program I have, with this object for
string, but I got the following additional errors... which appears to
indicate that templates are broken.

Menu.o(.data+0x0): multiple definition of `__default_alloc_template<false, 0>::free_list'
main.o(.data+0x34c): first defined here
