cygwin g++ strictness

[John Emmas]

Thanks for everyone's help with this.  I'm grateful for how quickly we
tracked it down.  I think I mentioned earlier that this is someone else's
code and would involve me in changing dozens (if not hundreds) of modules.
Casting seemed like the best workaround but as I've just found out from
Dave, that isn't a safe solution for references.

That's a good suggestion and will hopefully get some consideration.  In the
meantime this looks like being quite a time-consuming problem to solve....

Cheers,
