BZSUPPORT: minor problem with Blitz example on egcs 1.1b

[Rolf M. <ma...@ma...>]

I just installed egcs 1.1b and blitz 0.4.2, and I got a very surprising
error with the example files:

./indirect.cpp:120: call of overloaded `pow2 (double &)' is ambiguous
/usr/include/math.h:218: candidates are: pow2(double)
../blitz/mathf2.h:247:                 pow2(complex<long double>)
../blitz/mathf2.h:246:                 pow2(complex<double>)
../blitz/mathf2.h:245:                 pow2(complex<float>)
../blitz/mathf2.h:242:                 pow2(long double)
../blitz/mathf2.h:241:                 pow2(double)
../blitz/mathf2.h:240:                 pow2(float)
../blitz/mathf2.h:239:                 pow2(int)
./indirect.cpp:120: call of overloaded `pow2 (double)' is ambiguous
/usr/include/math.h:218: candidates are: pow2(double)
../blitz/mathf2.h:247:                 pow2(complex<long double>)
../blitz/mathf2.h:246:                 pow2(complex<double>)
../blitz/mathf2.h:245:                 pow2(complex<float>)
../blitz/mathf2.h:242:                 pow2(long double)
../blitz/mathf2.h:241:                 pow2(double)
../blitz/mathf2.h:240:                 pow2(float)
../blitz/mathf2.h:239:                 pow2(int)

The problematic line looks completely innocent to me:
double jdist2 = pow2(radius) - pow2(i-centre_i);

Is this a problem of egcs or of blitz?
