algorithmfwd.h macro "max" passed 3 arguments, but takes just 2

Description of problem: algorithmfwd.h:248:41: error: macro "max" passed 3 arguments, but takes just 2 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): latest gcc-3.4 from koji. How reproducible: Please have a look at: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/getfile?taskID=424414&name=build.log Looking to algorithmfwd.h makes me feel like it might be gcc-4.3 fault, for some reason i fail to lookup why i get this through header files, however i am sure i use proper configuration and include correctly this header file. Olso google-ing around i found no similarities for this strange issue.
Most likely some of the headers you included before <algorithm> defines #define max(x, y) something which you of course can't do before including a standard header. Just run g++ -O2 -g -pipe -Wall -Wp,-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -fexceptions -fstack-protector --param=ssp-buffer-size=4 -m32 -march=i386 -mtune=generic -fasynchronous-unwind-tables -I. -I.. -I../.. -I/builddir/build/BUILD/gdal-1.5.0-fedora/port -I/builddir/build/BUILD/gdal-1.5.0-fedora/gcore -I/builddir/build/BUILD/gdal-1.5.0-fedora/alg -I/builddir/build/BUILD/gdal-1.5.0-fedora/ogr -I/builddir/build/BUILD/gdal-1.5.0-fedora/ogr/ogrsf_frmts -DOGR_ENABLED -I/usr/include/ogdi -I/usr/include/netcdf-3 -I/usr/include/hdf -I/usr/include/libgeotiff -I/usr/include/libdap -I/builddir/build/BUILD/gdal-1.5.0-fedora/port -Iexternal/include -I/usr/include/cfitsio -I/usr/include/cfitsio/include -E -dD ogrgeojsonlayer.cpp -fPIC -DPIC > /tmp/ogrgeojsonlayer.ii and see what defines max.
Yes, i sorted out. Right fix was to move <algorithm> before any header inclusion on top of .c file to avoid conflicts. max was defined somewhere probably for other platforms, it was defined using #ifdef pragmas at all but order wasnt correct, gcc-43 dont pick up <algorithm> anymore by default.
