Hello,

I'm having this strange problem whereby my program dies at runtime with
the message "Pure virtual function called" (using DJGPP of course, gcc
2.7.2.1).  Now I know what it means (it's a C++ program), but I found
where it was stopping and there are certainly no pure virtual function
calls.  In fact it seems to dislike the line

	return kingthreats.numElements;

where there are obviously no function calls at all.  Has anyone had any
experience with this?
