This is a known issue: we were in the process of making the headers be 
compatible with namespaces, when Laurynas suggested to wait until GCC 3.0 
and libstdc++ 3.0 are stable enough to know what do they require for this 
to work.

So Somone(tm) should figure out whether that time has arrived, and if so, 
what are the possible alternatives for us to use.  Then we should pick up 
that discussion where it was left off.
