Patch problem with Forte 6U2?

Question

I just installed all of the patches currently up at access1 for Forte 6U2 on solaris 8. When I rebuilt, I got the following
Error: The destructor name must match the class name.
while building the following code fragment:
   template<typename T>
   class table
      class node {
      public:
               explicit
         node(const T&);
         ~node();
              // ... other stuff
      // ... other stuff
   // much later in same header
          template<typename T>
          inline
    table<T>::node::~node()
    }The error occurs on the out-of-body inline delcaration of table<T>::node::~node() above.
This code compiled fine with previous patches, and works correctly under gcc3.1 and gcc3.2.
CC -v gives me:
CC: Sun WorkShop 6 update 2 C++ 5.3 Patch 111685-10 2002/09/16
Any information would be appreciated.
Thanks.

I think you and I have different definitions of "status".
Search Failed == Not Fixed seems like a pretty coarse status measurement to me, and a poor interface to boot. If I had a support contract, would I actually be able to read a description of the bug as it is currently filed from suns perspective? What could possibly be so expensive about giving read access to an existing defect database ( esp. when compared with the cost of fixing defects ) that you need to charge to underwrite it? Does it not strike you as almost punitive to require payment from those users who found, tested, and submitted defects for the right to track the status of those defects? Please, please, please explain the rationale behind this to me. I find the whole approach infuriating, unnecessarily opaque, and counterproductive.
Am I interested in finding out that the defect is fixed. Yes. But what is far more important to me is to know that you are actually doing something about it. This critical piece of information is sorely lacking in the current system, especially given the number of defects I have submitted, which were assigned bug IDs, but which have never been fixed in any patch.
http://sunsolve.sun.com is the website you could check
the status of the bug. Search for the bug ID, if it's
not found, then the patch for it is not released.
Otherwise, you will see the patch ID. I don't think
you need to have contract to surf the website.
