Hi!
I'm trying the tutorial examples, but I always get this error message when I attempt to start a simulation. Would this be an error with a known solution?
For the parm1a example:

Dear Torquil This was discussed extensively last week. Browse messages with my name and Mattias Troyer's answers.
Short version: there in incopatibility with new version of cstdlib. Using old compiler does not help, as still cstdlib is new. Linking with old cstdlib would help, but would require a downgrade of installed cstdlib in the system (which means downgrade of 99% of the linux distro). The solution is to apply a few patches to the source.
After patching _and_ compilation with gcc 4.4 the problems vanish. compiling with gcc 4.6 sresults in code that fail to pass exactly one test.

Thanks!
I don't understand how I missed it while looking at the email list archive...
I will try patches/SVN when I get the opportunity.
