What a crock.  Do we have a reasonably fast way to get to these error
messages?  I can apply a patch trying to get across this error message
(and its relatives), but I don't really know whether it will do the
trick with the old gcc version we appear to be using here.

Or is there a reasonable chance of moving GUB to a newer version of GCC?
I think we are older than most C++ compilers by now.
