Try this:  edit the generated config.h file and change

  /* Define if your C++ runtime library is ISO compliant. */
  /* #undef CXX_ISO_COMPLIANT_LIBRARY */

to

  /* Define if your C++ runtime library is ISO compliant. */
  #define CXX_ISO_COMPLIANT_LIBRARY 1

This problem should be fixed in CVS now and that fix should appear in
the next snapshot.
