>Description:
The g++ compiler built from current mainline cvs sources rejects the
following code tc1.C breaking boost and STLport. Previous g++ compilers,
including gcc 3.3 bootstrapped one week ago, compile this code normally.   
>How-To-Repeat:
source code tc1.C
namespace std
{
template <class _Arg, class _Result>
struct unary_function {
  typedef _Arg argument_type;   
  typedef _Result result_type;  
};

template <class _Arg1, class _Arg2, class _Result>
struct binary_function {
  typedef _Arg1 first_argument_type;   
  typedef _Arg2 second_argument_type;  
  typedef _Result result_type;         
};      

template <class _Tp>
struct plus : public binary_function<_Tp,_Tp,_Tp> {
  _Tp operator()(const _Tp& __x, const _Tp& __y) const { return __x + __y; }
};

template <class _Operation> 
class binder1st
  : public unary_function<typename _Operation::second_argument_type,
                          typename _Operation::result_type> {
protected:
  _Operation op;
  typename _Operation::first_argument_type value;
public:
  binder1st(const _Operation& __x,
            const typename _Operation::first_argument_type& __y)
      : op(__x), value(__y) {}
  typename _Operation::result_type
  operator()(const typename _Operation::second_argument_type& __x) const {
    return op(value, __x); 
  }
  typename _Operation::result_type
  operator()(typename _Operation::second_argument_type& __x) const {
    return op(value, __x); 
  }
};

template <class _Operation, class _Tp>
inline binder1st<_Operation> 
bind1st(const _Operation& __fn, const _Tp& __x) 
{
  typedef typename _Operation::first_argument_type _Arg1_type;
  return binder1st<_Operation>(__fn, _Arg1_type(__x));
}

} // namespace std

template<typename _InputIter, typename _OutputIter, typename _UnaryOperation>
    _OutputIter
    transform(_InputIter __first, _InputIter __last,
              _OutputIter __result, _UnaryOperation __unary_op)
    {

      for ( ; __first != __last; ++__first, ++__result)
        *__result = __unary_op(*__first);
      return __result;
    }

int main()
{
  char a[10];
  char b[10];

  transform(a, a+10,
	    b, std::bind1st(std::plus<char>(), 1));
}
