Loud and clear, over.

That's not so nice.  It looks like your compiler

doesn't accept the declaration in flower-proto.hh

    template<class T> struct Link_array;

when it sees Drul_array<Link_array<Grob>>.

You could try adding

    #include "parray.hh"  /* gcc 2.95 on Darwin needs full declaration */

as the first include in note-column.cc, and see what happens.  If that
doesn't help, you may even have to comment-out the template
declarations in flower-proto.hh.  Then you'll may well experience more
of these 'undefined type' errors.

Please send a patch if you get it working, maybe addding small
comments as above.

What makes you fink that?

Oops, sorry.
