Ah - please can you post a *small* testcase which does this.  Preferably 
for gcc but failing that for g++.  (I do not have access to a DEC C++ 
compiler).  Can you also include the command line used to compile the 
testcase and details of the gcc/g++ that you used to recreate the bug. 
(ie What version of gcc ?  How was it configured ?  Did it have any 
patches applied ?)

Cheers
