Well, now you have the opposite problem: you have not provided
enough info for compiler to generate the BufMgr<mru>::BufMgr()
instantiation.

You probably have code like this:

  template <typename T> struct BufMgr { 
         BufMgr(char *, int, int); ... 
  };

but neglected to provide the *body* for BufMgr<T>::BufMgr(char *, ...) 
anywhere where the compiler can see it. Perhaps you've put it into
BufMgr.cpp and expected the compiler to find it there "by magic".

Some compilers, e.g. Sun Workshop, do perform such "magic"; g++ doesn't.

Adding '#include "BufMgr.cpp"' at the end of BufMgr.h is one way
to solve this.
