I'm using gcc 2.96RH and it seems to be OK. I think that the C files are
parsed as C, and we don't need to use that keyword in the C++. It is
annoying however - somebody changed it from "ns" to "namespace"
recently. It could have been prevented if the person who chose "ns" had
added a comment.

You are almost there. Just direct it to a text file like so, and please
use this format option.

cvs diff -up > cpp

Then I'll investigate.
