Does g++ support namespaces?
============================

   As of version 2.7.2, g++ recognizes the keywords `namespace' and
`using', and there is some rudimentary code present, but almost nothing
connected with namespaces works yet.  It appears that this will still
be true when 2.8.0 is released.
