That's didn't do it, and my poking around didn't help either. So I cried for
help in front of Debian's hppa crowd, and Randolph had mercy with me.

Better still, he also had the smarts of figuring out that it is a genuine g++
bug by bisecting back to version 4.0 first. He now filed this upstream at
	http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28620
with title 
	[4.1 regression] static const member in template class \
		leads to multiple definitions at linktime

Thanks to Randolph for all the help. I guess I have to wait til this is fixed
in a g++ revision as Debian has g++ 4.1 as a release goal so I can't really
backtrack to g++.  Or well maybe now for a while but I probably have to go to
4.1 anyway (which appens to build QuantLib on all other platforms).

Cheers, Dirk
