compilation issue

[GoogleCodeExporter]

while compiling the googletest with my base code i found below issue :

In file included from //gtest-1.7.0/include/gtest/internal/gtest-internal.h:60,
                 from //gtest-1.7.0/include/gtest/gtest.h:58,

is there way to get rid to this ...

The code seem correct to me.
On the other hand, gcc 3.4.4 is 10 years old.
Is there any way you can use a more recent compiler?
