function templates

["Nipun Talukdar" <nipun.talukdar@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I m using  g++ gcc version 3.3.2.

Following are the errors I got during linking. Please provide your
suggestions. The problem happens only when the function templates 
Are in a different file. 

Also they work with sun native CC ( c++) compilers.

    int y = 10 ;
