This is not a bug.  You have a macro max which is defined and so you get:
std::(((size())>(__n))?(size()):(__n)) which is a bug.

It is a bug in your code.

-------------------------------
Why do we have min and max macros?
/*
On Linux and Solaris this isn't allowed:

  int i; float x; min(i,x);

It says that there is no instantiation of min<T,T>() that matches (int,float). 
Until they fix their type-resolving
mechanism, we have to make-do with macros.
*/
#ifndef min
#define min(a,b)        ((a) < (b) ? (a): (b))
#endif
#ifndef max
#define max(a,b)        ((a) > (b) ? (a): (b))
#endif

OK. Now this work-around works in gcc 3.xxx but not now... sigh.
Can you tell me if the original problem has been fixed?

jacob
