#367 g++ 4.1.1-33 on RedHat fails to compile

[Anonymous]

I just successfully built Icarus Verilog 0.8 with g++ 3.4.6-9 on Linux, but the same distribution failed to compile on a different machine with a newer g++.

See the log below.

This has since been fixed, and compiles with the 4.x series of compilers.
