Typedef Structure Inheritance

[John Lenz <jelenz at students dot wisc dot edu>]

Hi.  I am getting an error when compiling some code and I was able to 
distill it down to this code

typedef struct {
  virtual const char *blah() {
    return "Heya::blah";
  }
} Heya;

struct Grok : public Heya {
  virtual const char *blah() {
    return "Grok::blah";
  }
};

int main() {
  Grok *g = new Grok();
  delete g;
  return 0;
}

When running gcc 3.2.1 (command line "g++ -c broken.cc") with the 
latest gcc-3.2 packege in Debian Unstable I get the following error...
borken.cc:10: redefinition of `const char _ZTS4Heya[6]'
broken.cc:10: `const char _ZTS4Heya[6]' previously defined here

But when running it with gcc-2.95.4 (again, the latest package in 
Debian Unstable) the file compiles without error.  Is this a bug in 
gcc? or is the above code not ISO C++ compilant and that is why gcc3.2 
is bombing on it?  It is kinda a wierd construction and I am not sure 
that it is even valid C++ code.  One interesting thing to note, remove 
the "new" and "delete" lines from the main function and the error is 
not generated, even with gcc3.2
