Thanks for your note. The changes you made fixed the compilation issue. 
During 'make check' I get failures during the 'compilation-via-plug-in' 
tests that seem to be Cygwin related. The log file shows libtool 
complaining about undefined references in a shared library and 
explicitly says that they are not allowed under Cygwin. I imagine these 
errors are to be expected.

I'm not sure if trying to swap auto_ptrs at all is a good idea. I know 
they have strange semantics. However, I don't know all the issues. In 
any case, I'm looking forward to playing around with this system. I have 
used the Ada community's ASIS some. ASIS is a standard library that 
makes it easy for me to write analysis programs that tap into the Ada 
compiler's parse tree and symbol table information. I thought that it 
would be nice to have something like that for C++ and it seems like 
OpenC++ might be just that thing. Now if only I can find the time to play...
