 I should have mentioned that the sstream file does not exist in any
 official release of GCC 2.95, it was added to FreeBSD's unofficial GCC
 2.95.4 release, which is why I reported it here.
 
 The file did exist in the GCC repository briefly between April 2000 and
 Feb 2001 but was not included in any release AFAICT.
 
 It's very unlikely that the patch will be applied to the official GCC
 tree, since the file has been removed and is only in the Attic:
 http://gcc.gnu.org//cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/gcc/libstdc++/Attic/sstream
 
 However, if FreeBSD are going to ship the file I believe it should be
 patched so it performs reasonably.
