Possible RTTI bug

[boss at d219-80 dot ropnet dot ru]

I'm working with egcs-1.1.1 on Linux 2.2.1, and I have a problem with RTTI.
This is an example:

[boss in ~/work/C++]$ cat RTTI-example.cc 
#include <iostream.h>

int main (int argc, char *argv[]) {
  char str[10];
  float f;
  cout << typeid(str).name() << " " << typeid(f).name () << endl;
  return 0;
}

[boss in ~/work/C++]$ g++ -fno-rtti -v -Wall RTTI-example.cc

Is this a bug ? But I read `gcc/cp/NEWS' file of egcs distribution, it contains
the next information:

* RTTI support has been rewritten to work properly and is now on by default.
  This means code that uses virtual functions will have a modest space
  overhead.  You can use the -fno-rtti flag to disable RTTI support.

And where can I find the information about RTTI in egcs ? I can't find
it neither in manual pages and info entries distributed with egcs, nor
on your site <egcs.cygnus.com> - why ? And what is about conformance of egcs 
RTTI mechanisms with C++ standard(s) ?
