Hmm,

This was meant to help me but instead I was left speechless, not knowing
how to say that I did not understand the context of this ;)
How am I supposed to go over the initial problem?
When Kris Kennaway asked me that question, I emphatically told him, YES,
I did. Then what he thought I should do was to rm /usr/include/g++/*
I did exactly that, but it did not help solve the problem and even so,
I wasn't quite sure why I was to do this, after re-reading from UPDATING.
So my problem is very much alive and kicking ;)
