Good. I installed gcc 4.0.1 here and tested the patch
as well. I'v now set up a 'Synopsis_0_8' branch that
contains this fix as well as a number of backported
modifications from the trunk. I'd like to spin a
0.8.1 bugfix release in the near future.

First of all, these failures are (mostly) known and
are used to measure progress as well as regressions
while I implement full support for ISO C++. Luckily,
most of the tested features aren't used when synopsis
runs as a documentation tool. They will be used as
I move forward transforming it into a true code
introspection tool.

As a reference you may compare your test results
to http://synopsis.fresco.org/tests/, which should
always provide the 'expected' test outcome.

PS: I note that you have a debian account. Would you
     be interested in helping me to generate debian
     packages ? There is some preliminary support in
     the build system. Try 'python setup.py bdist_dpkg'...
