c++ member arrays with variable size

[D Haley]

Hi Jim,

Thanks for the heads up, I am using Xcode 2.4.1; I
will try that update later, last XCode update (hoping
for GCC's new OpenMP support) -- which I did a few
weeks ago -- was ~1GB! I'm using OSX 10.4, which I
believe is tiger (according to wikipedia).

Thankyou.
