gcc 3.4.4 bug

["John M. Gravley" <john dot gravley at cctechnol dot com>]

I have found an apparent bug in gcc 3.4.4 under Cygwin. The attached 
test case (and the code it's derived from) works as expected with Cygwin 
gcc 3.3.3 with the exact same Cygwin install except the compiler 
packages. It also works fine with various versions of gcc on other 
platforms, including 3.4.2 (FC3) and 4.0 (FC4).

The test case is all of the files in the attached 
gcc-3.4.4-bug-test-case.tar.gz.  I sent the sample instead of the 
preprocessed files because the bug only presents itself when the base 
class code is in a library.  If you include it in the main file or just 
link it in as a .o, the code works fine.

This is probably isn't an absolute minimal test case, but it's not far off.

I have included cygcheck.out.gz as per Cygwin bug reporting instructions 
in case it's needed/wanted.  I gzipped it to avoid the verbosity in the 
message for those who don't care.

I submitted this to the cygwin mailing list and was asked to report it 
as a gcc bug.  I looked at entering it into the bugzilla database, but I 
didn't see a way to easily give you this type of test case using that 
mechanism.

Please let me know if I have misssed some needed information.
