     a Bug ?

        We have encountered a problem with allocating storage for
    arrays of classes. Looking at the generated c code it seems
    that 'new' forgets to cast '_vec_new()'. Has anyone else
    had similar problems ?

        The following code illustrates the problem - which 
    goes away by compiling with -DBUGFIX.

        Also complex.h does not have a default constructor -
    so arrays of complex numbers cant be defined at all - this
    of course can be fixed by providing a default constructor
    in complex.h.
