This e-mail from the cryptopp-list says that Crypto++ 5 compiles and passes
tests with gcc 2.95 on Mac OS X.  Apologies if this was already known to the
Mac OS porters.

While visiting the prison at D'Ni on Tue, 5 Nov 2002 19:42:56 -0500, Wei
Dai <weidai@weidai.com> was overheard saying to the guard:

>It's probably a bug in GCC 3.1. Please try upgrading to 3.2 or later, and
>let us know the result.

	OK, to follow up on this problem:

	I used the command "sudo gcc_select 2" to switch the default compiler
to gcc 2.95.  Compiling Crypto++ 5.0 worked great, and all of the
tests/benchmarks passed.
	If I switch back to gcc 3.1 which is the default compiler for MacOS
10.2.1, then of course I get the error that was talked about in this
thread.  Also, it doesn't seem to like the -fno-coalesce-templates option
(perhaps this doesn't exist for gcc 3.1?)  After removing that compiler
option it would begin to compile but then error out on rsa.cpp, like
before.

	I would happily upgrade to gcc 3.2, except that it is my understanding
that the version of gcc that Apple includes with MacOS X includes some
Apple extensions for MacOS X.  I think I will have to either use gcc 2.95
or wait for Apple to update their Developer Tools with gcc 3.2.

	When Apple releases gcc 3.2 for MacOS X I'll get back to the mailing
list with the results.
