Well, it seems from the asm output, the C++ is happy to provide
a compilation for the ostream operator friend function of a
template class, but AS is not so amiable :-)

Now, rather than a DJGPP-problem, I think I have a generic C++
problem.  I have a template class of Coordinate<T> and I want to
define
        friend ostream& operator<<(ostream&s, Coordinate<T>&c)

for various values of T (int, float, double &c).

Outside the class declaration, if I don't use the <type> tag on the
class name, I get a syntax error (parse error before &) and if I do,
the compiler is happy, but not the assembler.  Inside the class, I can
declare this function as a friend with a second parameter of just
"Coordinate&", but how do I define this outside the class?  (ie. where
I define the function body)
