I can think of one cause -- a rogue alloc.h in the mingw32 include directory
that's been removed from my Mingw runtime a while back.

One way to check it is the following: Use -H flag when compiling and se
what alloc.h is being included.

See http://www.delorie.com/archives/browse.cgi?p=cygwin/1998/12/29/14:06:14
for more info.

If that's not the reason, send me the preprocessed file pelase.
  
  $ g++ -c -save-temps [options] file.cc

and send me resulting file.ii.

Mumit
