[Bug c++/14021] New: lacking conversion from `std::streampos' to `std::streamoff'

["krempp at crans dot ens-cachan dot fr" <gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org>]

This conversion is required by the standard (see table 88 in §27.4.3.2), the
following doesnt compile with a cvs version (dated 20040124) of gcc-3.4 :

#include <ostream>

int f() {
  std::streamoff off = std::streampos(0);
}

error message : 
error : conversion from `std::streampos' to non-scalar type `std::streamoff'
requested

I don't have direct access to this compiler, I got this error via the Boost
regression tests system.
