[bug-cgicc] aCC compiler error with namespace

[Adam Fanello]

Incompatiblity with HP's aCC version B3910B A.03.33.

Error message, system information, and solution below:

--------------------------------------------------

The HP-UX aCC compiler complains:

/bin/sh ../libtool --mode=compile aCC -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I. -I.. -I..    -g -c MStreamable.cpp
rm -f .libs/MStreamable.lo
aCC -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I. -I.. -I.. -g -c MStreamable.cpp  +Z -DPIC -o .libs/MStreamable.lo
Error (future) 600: "MStreamable.cpp", line 32 # Type specifier is omitted;
    "int" is no longer assumed.
                       const MStreamable& obj)
                       ^^^^^                 
Error 22: "MStreamable.cpp", line 32 # Syntax error.
                       const MStreamable& obj)
                                        ^    
Error 711: "MStreamable.cpp", line 31 # There is no matching declaration for
    'std::basic_ostream<char,std::char_traits<char> > &<<()' in namespace
    "namespace cgicc".
    CGICCNS operator<<(STDNS ostream& out,
    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^                    
Error 172: "MStreamable.cpp", line 34 # Undeclared variable 'obj'.
      obj.render(out);
      ^^^            
Warning:        1 future errors were detected and ignored. Add a '+p' option to detect and fix them before they become fatal errors in a future release. Behavior of this ill-formed program is not guaranteed to match that of a well-formed program

make[1]: *** [MStreamable.lo] Error 1

--------------------------------------

Solution:

Add the CGICCNS in front of the parameter that it is complaining about:

STDNS ostream&
CGICCNS operator<<(STDNS ostream& out,
                   const CGICCNS MStreamable& obj)
                         ^^^^^^^
                         added this

I'm using cgicc-3.1.5. Old, but I checked CVS and see that only the comments in this file have ever changed.
