help for template woes with g++

["John F. Kolen" <jkolen at typhoon dot coginst dot uwf dot edu>]

Those of you who are struggling with linker errors caused by templates (such
as those found in STL) might like to know that -frepo works much better when
combined with -O3.  It turns out that repo stumbles on inlined methods declared
outside the class.  The -O3 forces the compiler to generate inline code,
otherwise the compiler _decides_ what to inline and to generate.  See g++ info
page for more details.

Also, if you use the String class, you should explicitly link with -lg++ as
well. Some critical data definitions reside there.
