 This is not a bug if you use stringstream and include <sstream>. Your
 code as written does exhibit the bug, however, which makes me think this
 is a problem in the old strstream classes. Fixing these deprecated
 classes is not a priority at the moment.
 
 If you need an urgent fix to this problem, try making the following
 mods:
 // libstdc++/2037
 #include <sstream>
 #include <string>
 #include <iostream>
 #include <iomanip>
 #include <vector>
 
 using namespace std;
 
 class DataPrimitive
 {
 public:
   string getFormatstring() { return formatstring(); }
 
   string getHeader()
   {
     ostringstream a;
     a.setf( ios::right );
     a << "** " 
       << setw(15) << getFormatstring()
       << endl;
     return a.str();
   }
 
 protected:
   virtual string formatstring() = 0;
 };
 
 
 class integerArray : public DataPrimitive
 {
   vector<int>*intList;
 
 public:
   integerArray() { intList = new vector<int>; }
   ~integerArray() { delete( intList ); }
               
   void add( int value )  { intList -> push_back( value ); }
 
   string formatstring()
   {
     ostringstream a;
     a << "i" << 4 << endl;
     return a.str();
   }
 };
 
 
 int main()
 {
 
   integerArray a; 
 
   for( int j=0; j<100; j++) a.add( -1 * j );
   cout << a.getHeader() << endl;
 
   return 0;
 }
