Please try to compile source with option -v and post output
	redir -eo gcc -v -c vectom.cpp >output.lst

I renamed valarray_meta.h to _valarray_meta.h to avoid filename 
conflict in 2 cases:
	non LFN systems (eg. plain DOS)
	Win9X when NameNumericTails=1 in Windows registry

Preprocessor should automatically translate name when in't mentioned 
in file header.gcc in the same directory and option -remap is specified 
for cpp (it is automatically with DJGPP port of gcc-2.95.2)

No. Perhaps Your installation have some problem.
