Yes, you probably wanted to define read() in the header file rwfile.h

template <class T> int rwfile::read(smat<T> data)
{
    // ...
}

Rather than in rwfile.cpp where I assume that you defined it.

OTOH, if you have found a bug in gcc then it is better to reduce the
program to the minimum that causes the error then cut and paste that
verbatim, else it just leaves everybody guessing. :)
