The problem is that IVAN's source code uses a G++3.x-only syntax for constructors in templates. The following patch does the trick:

To run the patch:

$ tar xzf ivan-0.50.tgz
$ patch -p0 ivan-0.50_gcc-4.3.2.patch
patching file ivan-0.50/FeLib/Include/fearray.h
patching file ivan-0.50/Main/Source/script.cpp
$ cd ivan-0.50/
... # make as normal

Please read!

./../FeLib/Include/fearray.h:37: note: use ‘fearray<type>::fearray’
instead of ‘fearray<type>::struct fearray<type>’ to name the
constructor in a qualified name

so you have to remove <type> from line 37 and write:
fearray<type>::fearray(
