[Bug c++/31226] New: static const volatile variables don't get linked correctly

["zickzack at w84u dot org" <gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org>]

The following program does not link:

#include <iostream>

class A {
 public:
   static bool const volatile doit = true;
};

using namespace std;

int main()
{
  if( A::doit ) cout << "doit is <true>";
  else cout << "doit is <false>";
}


The link error is:

$ g++ -o mytest mytest.cc
/tmp/ccdPkdpO.o: In function `main':
/tmp/ccdPkdpO.o(.text+0x11): undefined reference to `A::doit'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status


If volatile is removed, everything works.
