The bestway to get useful response is to post the shortest variant
of your code that exhibits the problem, together with the *exact*
command line you passed to gcc and the error message(s) printed by
the compiler, then ask people here to tell what's wrong with it.

Another place to ask about such problems is the Gnu C++ news group
(sorry, I don't know the exact name, maybe gnu.g++.help?).

I cannot talk for the Gcc development team, but my guess is: probably
when ANSI C++ standard finally is out.  Until that time, you are using
a language that doesn't have a standard, where problems like these are
a fact of life.
