[Mingw-users] compile errors in standard header files

[<Mar...@or...>]

Hello,

I seem to have a problem using the MinGW g++ compiler

Compiling some programs result in several error messages originating 
from the standard header files.

E.g.:

etc...

I would be grateful if anybody could help me.
