Yes, this has been trouble everywhere.
I believe <string> is ANSI. In the latest gnulibs, the old libg++ is
replaced by stdc++ which should have "string" defined. For what it's
worth, this works on one of our sparc solaris boxes with gcc 2.8.1.
Although it may well be something else, you might check to make sure
that you have the latest version of the gnu g++ libraries.
FYI, in the gnu implemenation, the "string" header is just an include
of the original "string.h" but at least it's conforming.
