[Insight-users] Linux compilation question

[Bill Oliver]

Hi!  I have just joined the mailing list, so if this
has been discussed, please forgive me.

I am trying to compile ITK on a Linux box.  Most of the
preliminaries have compiled OK, with the exception of some
CABLE problems that have to do with downloading with CVS
rather than compiling per se.

Things seemed to go OK for quite awhile but I have run
into the following error:

So, I have a namespace conflict.  What's a mother to do?

Is there a g++ option for ignoring this?

Any help would be appreciated!
