I have to say that although I probably would have written: "util.cpp" 
differently (in the namespace Message::Util to match util.h), I have not 
been able to find an error.  I note that I am not a C++ expert -- I do 
not like the language.  But, it must either be a very subtle error or a 
compiler bug.
