Re: problem in compilation QL 0.34 with linux debian gcc 2.95.4

As it may be usefull for some, here is a forward regarding problem compiling
QL with gcc 2.95.4.
Problem was solved upgrading gcc/g++ to 3.x series (and stllib).

But if you're on Debian you have easy access to 3.* gcc/g++ (as well as to
pre-built quantlib). Why not uses them? A lot changed in the C++ compiler,
and some things are really better.
