This is a bug the surfaced after some attribute handling changes in gcc
2.95 (wasn't there in egcs-1.1.x), and I just haven't been able to crack
it. If you want to know what's going on, see:

   Linkname: (C++) parser bug in handling fn attributes
   URL: http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-bugs/1999-11/msg00084.html

Contains a much simplified testcase that demonstrates the same bug you
found. This one is damned frustrating.

I have no fix for it currently, sorry.

As a workaround, try moving the windows.h before string.

Regards,
Mumit
