>Description:
	http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2001-06/msg01190.html
	compiling my templated C++ numeric library with gcc-3.0.0, I use
	-fno-implicit-templates to prevent multiple instantiations and explicitly
	instantiate all the templates that are supposed to be in the library.
	I stumbled across this:
	../lina/bin-ix86/libtbcidouble.so: undefined reference to double
	std::__cmath_power<double>(double, unsigned)' I'm rather sure this
	is a bug: -fno-implicit-templates is not supposed to
	change the underlying C++ std library, is it?
	
	The compiler probably can't just ignore the flag for included C++ std
	headers, but then, those symbols should be (weakly) present in libstdc++.so.
	At least for the templates only used internally.
>How-To-Repeat:
	Compile this program with -fno-inline-functions
/** cmath_pow.cc
 * 
 * Trying to reproduce linking  errors for
 * double std::__cmath_power<double>(double, unsigned)
 * in gcc-3.0.0, if -fno=implicit-templates is used.
 * The flag also affects the internally used (invisible) templates 
 * from the C++ std library :-( and at least std::__cmath_power
 * is missing from libstdc++.so.
 *
 * (c) Kurt Garloff, garloff@suse.de, 2001-06-20, GNU GPL
 * 
 * Compile with g++ -o cmath_pow cmath_pow.cc -fno-implicit-templates
 *

	long int res = (long int) testns::our_pow (arg, pw);
	std::printf ("%li\n", res);
	return 0;

// The problem ...
#ifdef WORKAROUND
template double std::__cmath_power<double>(double, unsigned);
#endif

>Fix:
	Workaround:
	Add -DWORKAROUND to the compiler switches.
	
	Fix:
	Add the needed std::__cmath_power<*>(*,unsigned)
	to libstdc++.
