We last tried egcs-1.1.2 very long ago.  I believe this is just a small
compiler bug, but I'm pretty sure there were others.  SID is pretty hard
on g++.  Please consider upgrading to gcc-2.95.2 or Red Hat Linux 7's
gcc-2.96.

Putting a "public:" specifier before the sidcpuutil.h destructor
decls may allay this specific message with your compiler, in case
you still want to try to use it.  You may need to turn optimization
down or off to get correct code.
