1) Shouldn't they really be called IPC classes?

As far as I can see, they implement Inter Process Communication, 
rather than Remote Procedure Calls. This is a minor detail though.

2) Isn't overloading on return type illegal?

I compiled the RPC classes with g++-2.3.3, and I have had great
difficulties with getting the sendplot/plot program to work, mainly
because g++ calls the iostream versions of operator<< and operator>>
rather than the iostreamb versions.

Is this an example of overloading on the return type, which I think is
illegal in c++, or is this a bug in g++?
