I know these error messages very well. The problem is that even with the
workaround mentioned in the README file of the aspectc++ tarball there
are some files in the gcc 3.x header files which cannot be parsed by
ac++ at the moment.

We are working on this issue but until we have a fix you can only try
the following workaround. It works for me under suse 8.2 and debian 3.0:

Either install a 2.9x g++ on your machine and run pumag++conf.pl with
the compiler name as the second argument ...

./pumag++conf.pl puma.config g++-2.95

or take g++ 2.9x header files from somewhere and adapt the include path
definitions of your puma.config.

It is not necessary to compile the generated code with the old g++. This
trick is just needed to provide the header files for the weaver.

I hope this helps,

Olaf
