Bug 1416214

Created attachment 1244090 [details]
Test this code with "g++ test.cpp"

Hi,
The attached C++ code has been compiling fine since RHEL 5, and does not compile anymore under RHEL 7.3 using GCC 4.8.5.
The related bug (involving valarray, endl and <<) has been identified and fixed in GCC 4.9.4, 5.4 and 6.1: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=69116

I would like to know if a backport to the 4.8 package is possible.

Thanks
