Compiling with GNU g++/gcc

Since the GNU C++ compiler version 2.5.8 does accept a class definition containing method names that coincide with ancestor class names, the function widget::bind is overloaded to allow for declaring a handler or generic binding. Version 2.6.0 and later, however, do accept the definition of the widget::handler functions. (I have, however, not tested this.)
