Ok, the problem is in platform_sunos5_sunc++.GNU, when a not known forte
version is found, it defaults to explicit. I am updating right now, for 4.2
and 5.3 we default to explicit, for all others to implicit

Qinghuajin and other Forte 9 users, you can work around this by added the
following line to your platform_macros.GNU file.
templates = implicit
