Bug#379862: it is a bug

[Martin Michlmayr]

There has been some controversy whether this is a bug in the
application or the compiler.  The latest status is a GCC developer
pointing out that the C++ committee ruled that it's invalid code, see
http://anubis.dkuug.dk/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/cwg_closed.html#18

Therefore, I suggest you let your upstream know about this so this can
be fixed before GCC 4.2 comes out.  Some background discussion can be
found at http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=9278
