Howdy One and All;

Using DJGPP 2.01 (GNU G++ 2.7.2.1) I'm getting "ambiguous template
instantiation" errors for basic_string's 
synthisied operators, i.e., !=, >, <=, and so on.  Can GNU G++ handle
<string>? My program follows (From the "STL Tutorial and Reference
Guide, Musser and Saini":

// Demonstrating an STL map.

#include <cstdlib>
#ifdef	__GNUC__
#	include <iostream.h>
#else
#	include <iostream>
#endif
#include <map>
#include <string>

int main()
{
	map<string, long, less<string> > directory;
	directory["Bogart"] = 1234567;
	directory["Bacall"] = 9876543;
	directory["Cagney"] = 3459876;
	// etc.

	// Read some names and look up their numbers.
	string name;
	while (cin >> name) 
    if (directory.find(name) != directory.end()) 
		cout << "The phone number for " << name
			 << " is " << directory[name] << "\n";
    else
		cout << "Sorry, no listing for " << name << "\n";

	return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}

I'm using the following command line:

D:\Randys\Programing\STL> gxx -O -fhandle-exceptions *.cpp

And Here are the error messages:
d:/djgpp/lang/cxx/std/sinst.h:60: ambiguous template instantiation for

basic_string<char,string_char_traits<char> > &)' requested

d:/djgpp/lang/cxx/std/sinst.h:64: ambiguous template instantiation for
`operator>=(const basic_string<char,string_char_traits<char> > &, const
char *)' requested

Note:
* Different combo's of -O -fhandle-exceptions produce the same errors.
* This program compiles under Visual C++ 4.2 w/o error.
* I have received ANY responces on comp.os.msdos.djgpp.

Thanks in advance for the help!
