Compilation fails of the small code sample found at:

http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/libstdc++/manual/bk01pt12ch31s03.html

I am using the suggested compiler options.
This is the code (cut and pasted from your documentation):

#include <vector>
#include <parallel/algorithm>

int main()
{
  std::vector<int> v(100);

  // ...

  // Explicitly force a call to parallel sort.
  __gnu_parallel::sort(v.begin(), v.end());
  return 0;
}

If it is this code that is incorrect the docs should be fixed as there are not
many examples of  parallel libstdc++ usage to be found on the net at the
moment.

This is g++ output:

g++ -v -save-temps -fopenmp -march=i686 -o test parallelsort.cpp

_Compare = std::less<int>]

So it can't resolve the ambiguous overloading between a parallel and
non-parallel version of sort.

I am not sure which -march option i should be using, but i tried using none,
-march=i686, and -march=native, with identical results.

This is an up-to-date ubuntu 8.10, by the way.
