  It's close, but not quite. This compiles, it just doesn't execute
correctly! :-) For some reason, (I'm still coming up to speed on
libstdc++-v3) changing from an ostrstream to a ostringstream stops
outputting the test state completely.

  All this function does is let me do a:
        std::cout << testout(FAILED) << std::endl
  where FAILED is an index into an array, and testout() prints the
string with that entry. You can see if this works or not by trying
the unit.cc test case in testsuite/libdejagnu/.

  I fixed this by adding a AC_LANG_CPLUSPLUS to the DJ_AC_STL defun.
This way it uses whatever you have set for CXX.
