            Bug ID: 57403
           Summary: A vector of volatile int doesn't work, but one of
                    volatile  void * does
           Product: gcc
           Version: unknown
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: libstdc++
          Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
          Reporter: nmm1 at cam dot ac.uk

In gcc 4.8.0, the following program fails horribly:

#include <vector>

int main () {
    std::vector<volatile int> memory(123);
}

Change the 'int' to void *' and it works.  It fails under OpenSUSE 11.4
and OpenSUSE 12.1, both on AMD 64-bit, and with gcc 4.6.2 as well.  The
messages are:
