Re: [Nel] dynamic_cast pbs...

        Compiling with gcc-2.95.4 (on Debian) I do not see these messages.
Maybe this is a gcc-2.96 specific lossage. I don't remember the reasons for
Debian not to upgrade to gcc-2.96 but this one may be among them.

        Cheers,

P.S. rtti is always enabled, there is only is a switch to disable it.
