compiling under slack 8.0 and a new compiler

[Peter Buelow]

c++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I. -I./.. -isystem /usr/X11R6/include     -g -W
-Wall -trigraphs  -c logplayer.C
In file included from logplayer.C:46:
/usr/local/include/g++-v3/backward/fstream.h:38: using directive `streampos'
   introduced ambiguous type `streampos'
make[1]: *** [logplayer.o] Error 1

This is the error I get with gcc 3.03 (self compiled, older gcc
uninstalled). The comments in the source say this bit of functionality is
sort of a unecessary bit, so can I just hack it out? I don't have a lot of
time to do this, but medic isn't working right on this machine, and I have
always wanted to try out ddd. Thanks.
