[ROOT] std:vector in commandline

Hi all,
I've found a weird behaviour in root command line when I try to use
std::vectors on a Scientific Linux machine.
The problem appears when I create a std::vector<double> after having
loaded a library in which a std::vector<double> is used.
Needless to say, it works perfecly if I load no libraries.

To reproduce this problem I made a script, teststl.C which creates,
fills, and reads a std::vector<double>.
Then I set up class, MyClass which contains just a vector<double>* and I
created the shared library, libtest.so.

This is what I get just running the script:

Type ? for help. Commands must be C++ statements.
Enclose multiple statements between { }.
root [0] .x teststl.C

a[0]=12
a[1]=1e-05
root [1]

and this is what happens if I load libtest.so, even f i dont' use
MyClass at all:

root [2]

I found that this error appears just on Scientific Linux v3, with gcc
version 3.2.3 20030502 (Red Hat Linux 3.2.3-39). I've tried with both
root 4.00.06 and root 4.00.08.

On the contrary, it works perfectly on RedHat 9, gcc 3.2.2 and RedHat
7.3 gcc 2.96.
Do you have any idea?

I have attached the code that reproduces the problem.
Thanks and Regards,
Alessandro
