Given the comments about C++ and the right way to fix the code, I will "repair" these
patches when I play with 7.0beta. Or do you wish to back out the patches, Bruce, and
await an updated version?  It sounds like the correct form for the C++ example code
would help all systems, not just the Irix.  It sounds like the patches may best be
left out of the current source tree (given their fuzzy nature) and left for Irix
users of 6.5.3, and that I should get my act together and work on getting 7.0
correct?  Comments?
