Multiple definition error in STL?

Multiple definition error in STL?

[Andrew Begel]

I am getting a multiple definition problem compiling a program that
uses STL 3 with Cygwin GCC 2.95.2, binutils 2.9.4 under Win2K.
Compiling the exact same program on Linux and Solaris with GCC 2.95.2
yields no errors.  In some cases, adding -O1 to the compilation fixes
the error, and in some cases it does not.  Is this a known problem?
Is there a workaround?  (The exact errors are at the end of this
message).

Thanks,

andy begel

*** This is the case that can be fixed by adding -O1:

To complete the picture, this error extravaganza happily ends with:
