It solves a problem on HP-UX 11.00, where the linking was successful.

And I am pretty sure it is lecal ANSI C++, so it should not give any
problems on any other platform.  The source with the change compiled
without problems on RedHat EL 2.1 and 3, HP-UX 11.00, Mac OS X,
Solaris 7 and 8.

The linker problem is only on HP-UX 11.23, where the 'namespace std
{};' part isn't needed because the header files use the std namespace.
