From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.2b) Gecko/20020922

Description of problem:
A static int const class variable lists with the symbol type U in nm.  The
object file does not link because the constructor refers to it.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. g++ testclass.cc -o testclass 
2.
3.
	

Actual Results:  /tmp/cc8FUTRi.o: In function
`TestClass::TestClass[in-charge](TestClass const*)':
/tmp/cc8FUTRi.o(.gnu.linkonce.t._ZN9TestClassC1EPKS_+0x17): undefined reference
to `TestClass::notDefined'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status


Expected Results:  Nothing should have printed and the file should have
successfully linked.
