RE: ostrostrstreambuf::freeze() problem

[Gauland, Michael]

I was able to work around this by replacing ddd/assert.h with a link to 
/usr/include/assert.h (simply removing it also requires changing the 
makefile--this seemed easier).  gcc was picking up the local copy instead of 
the /usr/include version, and that led to some problems with the compilation 
(and somehow locked things up).  

I determined this by modifying the ddd/configure script to dump information 
about what it was trying to do.  I couldn't duplicate the problem from the 
command line, though.  Don't know what was different about the environment the 
script runs in.

I also needed to modify config.h to define HAVE_STREAMPOS in ddd/config.h to 
get the build to complete.
