Hi folks,
   a week or teo back I asked "where is GCC/++ for VMS"
several helpful people (to whom many thanks) said

	"mango.rsmas.miami.edu in /pub/VMS-g++"

I duely grabbed it and installed it and all was great!
But now woe is me! G++ seems to refuse to find files
using VMS "search lists", I cannot get any other program
to emulate this "not there" behavior. Here is an example:

define include_list [foo],[bar]

C++ code (in foo.cc):

#include "bar.h"	// inc [bar]

etc

compile:
gxx /include=include_list: foo.cc

error diagnostic no such file bar.h

BUT dir include_list:*.h is ok and
if foo.cc has fopen("include_list:bar.h", ...
in it that open succeeds Has anyone experienced
this problem if so what's the fix? I've tried 
everything I can think of changing definitions etc]
and can't get it to work!

Any suggestions gratefully received,
	thanks Rod.

Disclaimer: None, it's a fair cop I wrote it.
