I have v2.46 and just compiled a small test program (350 words) for the 16F59 incorporating the example I posted for you without error.

If you are getting errors with usage of << or >>, then your compiler may be corrupt. Reinstall from your master disk, and if problems still persist, contact Jeff at MeLabs for his comment.

May I suggest you also check your labels and definitions that you're not using a reserved word as a label.
