check/exams fails due to parser errors on my Debian/unstable system
(g++-4.1 *Debian version* 4.1.1-7).
The error is somewhere in exam_numeric.cpp:exam_numeric6(), here
is a backtrace:

Catchpoint 11 (exception thrown)

    _M_p = 0x81d60cc "0^(I*sym)"}}
(gdb) call l.dbgprint()
{sym}


BTW, we have discussed similar problem with ginac 1.4 tests some time ago
(see http://www.ginac.de/pipermail/ginac-list/2006-May/000835.html)
You have (almost) convinced me of the compiler bug...

Best regards,
 Alexei
