Chris,

'hashtable.h' is deprecated (since GCC 3.3.1 at least).

Since it's deprecated, you'd be better off re-working your program to
use something else. It means 'hashtable.h' will be totally removed in the
future.
// ----------
In 'hashtable.h'  (both 2.95.3 and 3.3.1):
......
/* NOTE: This is an internal header file, included by other STL headers.
*   You should not attempt to use it directly.
*/
......
#include <ext/stl_hashtable.h>
......
// ----------

When you have troubles like this, search your system for the file, then read
them (and the files they also include). You'll learn something! <G>

Go back over to alt.comp.lang.learn.c-c++, and tell them what you want to do
(what did  'hashtable' solve for you) and I'll bet they can find an solution
to your problem.
(one poster already offered some ideas).
