mtl compile problems

Hello, I am trying to install mtl v.2.1.22-2
I am using gcc v.3.4.6 and Linux v.2.6.18

The compile time error messages are as shown below
I fixed this error by doing as suggested ie using
typename mtl:: etc, but there were many other
errors as well, so I wonder if there is something wrong in 
my configuration (also included below).

I would be grateful for any suggestions you can provide...

Thankyou,
Roger Young.
