Please send all ACE-related material to the ACE mailing list at

Can you please let us know what version of ACE you are using?  In
general, it's a good idea to use the latest version, which you can get
at

This looks like an EGCS compiler bug.  I recommend that you take a
look at

http://www.cs.wustl.edu/~schmidt/ACE_wrappers/ACE-INSTALL.html

and look at the Linux discussion.

Take care,
