David Edelsohn <dje at gcc dot gnu.org> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|WAITING |RESOLVED Resolution| |FIXED --- Comment #4 from David Edelsohn <dje at gcc dot gnu.org> 2011-10-19 13:32:52 UTC --- I assume the user has GCC 4.2.0 installed because that was the version available from IBM AIX Toolbox. Prebuilt binaries of more recent versions of GCC are available. I do not have GCC 4.2.0 available to test. GCC 4.1.3 compiles the file. GCC 4.2.4 complains about a deprecated convesion: warning: deprecated conversion from string constant to 'char*' GCC 4.3.x and above fail with errors and warnings in the libstdc++ header files. None of the versions of GCC to which I have access crash with an ICE. I believe that this was a bug in the .0 release that was fixed in a later update.
