Yes and yes. :-) Templates are generally the worst example of 
non-portability between GCC and Sun Studio. Often this translates 
into having to rewrite entire sections of code.

I'll download the Konversation source tonight and see where it gets

I will also upload the K3B binary patches tonight as well. :-)
