The Cygwin version of gcc that currently downloads with setup
(gcc-2.95.3-5.tar.bz2) is BROKEN!  Although I don't have time to
specifically isoloate the problem, the compiler breaks (reporting a
meaningless error) when compiling complex code using templates an example of
which follows:

 _vertices = new Ref<Vertex>[TriInterpCoef::order_to_nvertex(_order)];

Version gcc-2.95.3-4.tar.gz and earlier do not break and generate code
correctly.

By any chance did the person that broke gcc also work on (and break)
bison-1.31-1?
