Yes, you are right. 
With egcs-1.1b I first mistakenly compiled my code 
without -fsquangle which I used for installing libstdc++.

I actually have many workarounds. But I would like to see this solved.
The strange thing is that under gdb you can see that in 
some occasion a (template) destructor is called via a null pointer!

Thanks, it took some iteration effort to minimize. Hope it will help.
