This is a problem of a constantly changing C++ compiler. The 4.0 compiler was far more stringent about certain constructs than previous versions of the compiler. I'm pretty sure that sometime soon Steve will update Icarus for the 4.0 compiler. Until then you should use an earlier compiler, maybe 3.3 or 3.4. If you are running a distribution like Debian or Ubuntu, you can install more that one compiler at a time and choose between as needed. > Or should I be considering another GNU/Free varilog compiler? No. > Is Icarus still the standard in open source varilog? Yes. In fact, if precompiled binaries exist for your distribution (ie they do exist for Debian and Ubuntu) you should just install them.

C sucks slightly less so, but only because it makes no pretense at all about being a high level language.
