Hello,

I recently upgraded from DJGPP 2.00 to 2.01, I 
upgraded from GPP/LGPP272 to GPP/LGPP280, etc.

Under my old installation, the program I am working
on (which uses templates and has Friend members in
different class) compiled and executed perfectly.
This was with using the #pragma interface method
and also linking with -fexternal-templates.

Since I've upgraded my DJGPP though, I get several
errors on compilation.  I searched through the FAQ
and the inf files and could not find anything that
I was doing wrong.  Here is a bit of the code that
is causing errors:

......
  template <class T> class Node
  {
      friend Iter<T>;
      friend List<T>;
   private:
......

Iter and List are classes which are described
after this class. 


Here are some errors I get:

...........
 `v_²' is neither function nor method; cannot be declared friend  (corresponds to
friend Iter)

 `ñ!' is neither function nor method; cannot be declared friend (corresponds to
friend List)
...........


There are also a few other errors I get too, but I
think if someone could help me understand why I'm getting errors now, after it worked
perfectly before, I
can figure out the rest.  

Any ideas why this code is longer is working, please?
