Nope. I used a C++ compiler to develop it, not MSVC-6 ;-)

Seriously: Have you tried removing the rebind-code completely from the
MEM_Allocator.h-file?

If this works for you, could you just mail to me a preprocessor-variable
which enables me to check for MS-VC6?

Or just try to add this:

#ifndef __MSVC6__whatever_you_have_to_test_to_detect_msvc6__
	template<...> rebind()
#endif

Also could you just mail the compiler error messages to me?

Greetings,
Peter
