Can named return values (GNU extension for C++) be used with templates as in:

template<class T>
class Vector
{
	public:
		...
	private:
		...
		unsigned long m_nLength;
};

...
template<class T>
Vector<T> Vector<T>::Add( const Vector<T>& UsrVec ) return Tmp( m_nLength );
{
	...
}

DJGPP generates the following message:
parse error in template specification before `return'
end of file read inside definition

A similar class, not utilising templates, works well. Any suggestions?

I am using DJGPP v1.11 maint5.

Thanks,

Peter
