ostringstream problem

[Edward C Morgan <ecmorgan@lucent.com>]

I'm having a problem using the ostringstream class.  When I use it
directly everything works
out ok, but if I inherit it into another class, I get a segmentation
fault:

foo.C:
#include <sstream>
class Foo : public ostringstream {
public:
        Foo() : ostringstream() {}
        ~Foo() {}
};

int
main()
{
#ifdef FOO
        Foo yy;
#else
        ostringstream yy;
#endif
        yy << "Hello world\n";
        return(0);
}

build:
LIBSTDC=/tmp1/ecm/libstdc++
GCCDIR=/tmp1/ecm/gcc/bin
set -x
${GCCDIR}/g++ -I${LIBSTDC}/include/g++-v3 -g -Wall -Wno-reorder
-L${LIBSTDC}/lib -DFOO foo.C -o fooBad
${GCCDIR}/g++ -I${LIBSTDC}/include/g++-v3 -g -Wall -Wno-reorder
-L${LIBSTDC}/lib foo.C -o fooGood

Here's the output of one of the fooBad compile with the -v option added:

$ ${GCCDIR}/g++ -v -I${LIBSTDC}/include/g++-v3 -g -Wall -Wno-reorder
-L${LIBSTDC}/lib -DFOO foo.C -o fooBad
