bug !? (in-class member constants initialization)

[Max Lawson]

	Hi,

The testcase below compile with egcs-2.90.20 on my i586-pc-linux-glibc1 box

-----------------

#include <iostream.h>

template<class T>
class z
{
public:

  static const T z_ = .001;
};


int main( )
{

  cout << z<double>::z_ << "; " << z<int>::z_ << '\n';

  return 0;
}
----------------------

the execution gives me a bogus behaviour:
$a.out 
0.001; -755914244

Such in-class member constants initialisation is  
only allowed for booleans and integers, isn't it ? 
In this case, the compilation should fail. At least, 
it should according to what is written in the last 
edition of the c++ programming language.


Best regards, Max
