Incorrect behaviour of the compiler in C++

[robin 'xer.xes' putters]

The following code should speak for itself. Looks like something goes wrong
with the way GCC is handling typedef's..

Is this a known bug? Is there a patch for it?

(btw. I've tried various compilers. 2.7.2.3 on linux, 2.91.something on
linux, 2.95.2 on playstation, windows (cygwin), and linux.)

//
// test.cpp(34) : conflicting types for `typedef const class ClsRef
constClsRef'
// test.cpp(29) : previous declaration as `typedef class Templ<Cls>
constClsRef'
//

//
// Just a class
//
class Cls;

//
// Just a template
//
template <typename taTYPE> class Templ;

//
//
//
typedef Templ<Cls> ClsRef;

//
// First forward declaration
//
typedef const ClsRef constClsRef;

//
// Second forward declaration
//
typedef const ClsRef constClsRef;  // line 29

//
// Third forward declaration.
//
typedef const ClsRef constClsRef;  // line 34
