Afraid not, Jürgen. I get the same error. In fact, I have also to define a
default constuctor (see below). This seems like a compiler bug to me (not
knowing much!). Does Jean-Marc have a more modern version of DEC cxx? Mine is
DIGITAL C++ V6.1-029 on DIGITAL UNIX V4.0 (Rev. 1091) 

Jean-Marc? Can you compile table.C or tabular.C with cxx?

I experimented in tabular.C because the code is identical and the compile times
less.

void LyXTabular::Init(int rows_arg, int columns_arg)
{
    .
    .
    .
    cell_info = new cellstruct*[rows_];

    int cellno = 0;
    for (i = 0; i < rows_; ++i) {
        cell_info[i] = new cellstruct[columns_];
        for (j = 0; j < columns_; ++j) {
            cell_info[i][j].setBuffer(buffer);
            cell_info[i][j].cellno = cellno++;
        }
    }
    .
    .
    .
}

LyXTabular::cellstruct::cellstruct() {
        init();
}

LyXTabular::cellstruct::cellstruct(Buffer * buf) {
        init();
        setBuffer(buf);
}

void LyXTabular::cellstruct::init() {
        cellno = 0; //should be initilaized correctly later.
        width_of_cell = 0;
        multicolumn = LyXTabular::CELL_NORMAL;
        alignment = LYX_ALIGN_CENTER;
        top_line = true;
        bottom_line = false;
        rotate = false;
        linebreaks = false;
}

void LyXTabular::cellstruct::setBuffer(Buffer * buf)
{
        if (inset) delete inset;
        inset = new InsetText(buf);
}
