Here are some hints for those of you having trouble compiling either
libg++ or groff.
1. Make sure all your sources are up to date
2. Reinstall your include files. (especially sys/cdefs.h, as it
disables gcc's format __attribute__ when using g++. G++ doesn't
understand the format __attribute__ yet).
3. Remove all the include files from /usr/include/g++ and reinstall
libg++. (The NetBSD include files are allready C++ safe. Some
libg++ headers were replacements of system headers, this caused
problems where they were incompatible with ours. These
compatibility headers are no longer installed.)
4. Reinstall groff.
--jtc
