This is a problem, because it seems we don't have nameless structs
in g++, and I have no idea how to solve this.
gcc3.2 has them.  I just verified that a fragment like that compiles fine with g++3.2.
Red Hat 8.0, Suse 8.1, and Mandrake 9.0 have already standardized on gcc3.2.
Debian supports gcc3.2 only in their 'testing' distribution,
but historically, a lot of people switch to 'testing'
when they need new stuff.
I have a feeling enough distributions have updated to gcc3.2 that
it might be ok to start depending on it.
