However, GCC 3.x does not yet fully comply with C++98.
For example, I'm pretty sure it does not support separate
compilation of templates using the "export" keyword.

The URL to answer this question ought to be
<http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Standards.html>, but currently that
section of the GCC manual only documents which standards GCC supports
for C, Objective C, Ada, Fortran, and Java, not for C++.
