local classes in egcs 980214 make crash

[David C Binderman]

Hello there,

The following code produces an internal compiler error on egcs-980214,
and for most of this year's versions of egcs.

void
f()
{
	class Local_1 { };

	class Local_2 {
		friend class Friend ;
	};

	class Friend {
	public:
		Local_1 * g(Local_2 *)
		{
			return 0;
		}
	};
}

My understanding is that this code should compile ok.

Regards
