Every SSQLS type includes two static member variables; _table is one.
If you don't do anything to avoid it, they're assigned default values
within the sql_create_* macro, so if the compiler sees that macro call
twice, it sees two separate assignments to a static member variable,
which annoys it.
To fix this, I would put the sql_create_* macro in a separate .h file,
and #define MYSQLPP_SSQLS_NO_STATICS above all #includes for that file
except for one. This ensures that the static members are assigned to
only once. You can see this pattern in action in the examples: the
'stock' SSQLS type is defined in stock.h, and it is included in both
util.cpp and in custom*.cpp.
Your situation is slightly more complex because you are #including the
SSQLS definition within a .h file. You'll probably need a little C
preprocessor work to avoid problems here.

Simple patches like this usually get accepted pretty quickly. I suggest
looking at lib/sql_types.h.

Against svn, if at all possible. That makes it easier for you to
generate diffs, and for me to apply them.
