$ gcc -v Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/2.8.1/specs gcc version 2.8.1 Running the RedHat distribution v5.0 >Description: libstd++ installs a header file, alloc.h into /usr/include/g++ ... this header file conflicts with the alloc.h header file included into /usr/local/apache/include This is a problem when the programmer attempts to use the various STL header files along with the Apache header files. -I/usr/local/apache/include confuses the STL header files, and -idirafter /usr/local/apache/include confuses the apache header files :) >How-To-Repeat: Simply compile a C++ program with the following includes: #include <string> #include <httpd.h> >Fix: I simply renamed Apache's alloc.h to ap_alloc.h, and modified httpd.h to point to the proper header file.
