class EExpression
    {
    public:
            EExpression( int );
            EExpression( double );

    public:
      friend EExpression  operator+( const EExpression&, const EExpression& );
      friend EExpression  operator<( const EExpression&, const EExpression& );
    .....
    public:
             string fSQLString;
    };


void main()
    {
   // Works fine w/o STL, doesn't with it
   // because of template<class T> bool operator> in function.h
   //                              ^^^^
    EExpression a = EExpression( 2 ) > 4; 
    ....
    }

I don't like that at all. I think that those operators should be
removed form STL.
