Does darwin have a problem with HashTable<P>::insert?

Hi,

In module string_map.cpp, the HashTable<P>::insert and
HashTable::find_i are redeclared as follows:

  // needed for darwin
  template HashTable<StringMap::Parms>::iterator
           HashTable<StringMap::Parms>::find_i(char const*
const&, bool&);
  template std::pair<HashTable<StringMap::Parms>::iterator,bool>
           HashTable<StringMap::Parms>::insert(const StringPair
&);

cygwin does not need these declarations. Does anyone on this list
use darwin that can confirm that these are still needed? If so,
what happens when the above lines are removed?

regards,
Gary Setter
