Description Thor Nolen 2001-08-05 19:04:06 UTC 
Description of Problem:
 funcptr.cc - Address of static member function bug.  This problem
showed up when we tried to compile under GCC 2.96-85.  It doesn't
happen under GCC 2.91.66.  The compiler crashes with an internal error
(seg fault) when you try to compile code that takes the address of a
static member function.  The problem is that you can't take the
address of a static template member function.  There is no problem
taking the address of a simple template function that does the exact
same thing.

According to Jason Merrill, it is unclear whether this is valid C++ program
or not (it is currently open core issue 115 in the ISO C++ committee).
I'll see what can be done.
FYI it crashes with g++ 2.95.2, 2.96-RH, 3.0, 3.0.1 and 3.1 CVS.
