Just to have a clarification: Do you mean something intrinsic to any C++
front-end or just g++?
Just g++; sorry for being unclear.
The point is that the RECORD_TYPE created by G++ is "unlowered"; it
doesn't really look like a C representation of the equivalent type. As
a result, it's tricky for the back end to find all of the components of
the class.
