This is a very old compiler (from no later than 2006), and we don't test on it (although we are striving currently to support C++03). Going forward it is not too unlikely that we will move to using C++11 features for our implementation. So if you can use a more recent version of gcc (or clang) then you will be better off. > and > get the following error when compiling the C++ bindings.

As far as I can tell (and the compilers we test on seem to agree) there is no name clash here (it is probably a name lookup bug in the compiler)! You could try explicitly making the declaration: void link_options(const proton::link_options&); But I doubt this will help, as the compiler seems to know this already and the name is not ambiguous.
