Hmm, I'm not quite sure which error from the quoted page is the cause.
But:
http://robotics.jpl.nasa.gov/people/jack/ndoc/rwdocs/toolread
has a interesting quote:
"2. MSVC 5.0 has difficulty resolving overloaded functions in
templatized
classes. If you compile a templatized class and you run into an error message
such as:

  rwfix.cpp(60) : error C2244: 'index' : unable to resolve function overload

then try moving the body of the member function into the class declaration.
"

You could try the same - move the function bodies for the two errors
inline.

This i can fix, it looks like - yet another- missing piece of the MS
compiler. I'll check in a probable fix in a couple of minutes.

It sure looks it. Is there anything that MSVC gives us that the mingw
port doesn't?
