is this a bug in g++?...

[brent verner]

...or have I needlessly sidetracked myself( into the depths of gcc/g++)?

  http://sources.redhat.com/ml/libstdc++/2000-09/msg00000.html

could someone comment on the above message, please. As far as I see,
there are only two options:
  1) make g++ default to '--fno-builtin'
  2) fix g++ so it creates the builtin function in the appropriate 
     namespace scope

(the noted behavior exists in 2.95.2 (-fhonor-std) and current cvs g++.)

thanks,
  brent
