If you insist on compiling from "source" with gcc-3.2 or later, please
get the correct tar-ball: iscan-1.5.2-1.redhat.8.0.tar.gz.

The C++ ABI changed a few times between 2.9x and 3.2 and the iscan
"sources" contain several closed C++ source based binary objects.  The
regular iscan-1.5.2-1.tar.gz is for g++-2.9x, the one mentioned above
is for g++-3.2 or later.

Hope this helps,
