Don't post comprehensive code :-)
But if you can discover the smallest possible example that shows the
problem, that will encourage lots of helpful responses.

This is saying that you've not finished a statement before defining
another one. E.g. see
  http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3221422/gcc-template-error

It could mean a missing semi-colon in the file being included before
this one. If there are no statements or #include lines before line 8 in
BinaryTree.h, look at the files that include BinaryTree.h.

If that is true, then the Smallest Possible Example would be very
interesting to the Rcpp developers, I'm sure.
