/*I'm not sure if this is the place to post this, but here goes.*/

I tried using the list data structure from the c++ STL.  It works fine
if used in a single source file.  However, if I try to have two
source files using list (or anything else that uses the default alloc) I
get data and function definitions appearing in both object files due to
template expansions.  The culprit is alloc.h which does things along the lines
of:

template <class T> default_alloc<T>::count=0;

Since there are no #pragma interface lines to be found in alloc.h, I assume
there is a set of command line incantations to compile multi-source files
relying on STL and alloc.h.

Thanks in advance for any hints, pointers, or solutions.
