Hi, Tony.  Thanks for letting me know.  I just checked in changes to
Makefile.in in mlcd and apps/xojpanel to use CXX instead of CC for compiling
and linking C++ code.  It didn't break anything for me, at least.  Please do
a "cvs update" and re-run ./configure and make to see if it compiles out of
the box for you now.

You could try killing and restarting lpd, but I don't know if that will
help.  Do a "ps -aux|grep ptal" to see if ptal-printd and ptal-mlcd are
running.  Also, if you're running X, switch back and log in to VT1 and try
to print there, to see if any error messages from the ptal daeamons appear.
Also, try "lpq -P<queuename>", substituting the correct queue name of
course, to see if jobs are queued up.

I don't think I need it at this point, but FYI you should be able to say
"gcc --version" or "g++ --version".
