egcs 1.0.1 internal compiler error 9

[David Rourke]

Given the following code:

foo2.cc
-------
// Deliberately leave out forward declarations
//
// template<class T> class foo;
// template<class T> T getx(const foo<T> &);

template<class T>
class foo
{
private:
  T x;
public:
  void setx(T y);
  friend T getx <T>(const foo<T> &);
};

template<class T> T getx(const foo<T> &f) {return f.x;}
template<class T> void foo<T>::setx(T y) {x=y;}

int main()
{
  foo<int> f;
  f.setx(3);
  int y=getx(f);
  return 0;
}

It compiles as follows:

g++ -v -c foo2.cc
