egcs-1.1: C++ aggregate initialization bug?

[Mumit Khan]

/*
   
 The following is a condensed version of a bug report filed by Tom Uban
 <uban@mail.netnitco.net>.

 I believe that egcs is incorrect in trying to use a copy constructor in
 the aggregate initialization below. According to Dec'96 DWP Sec 12.6.2.2 
 "Explicit Initialization", the initialization should only call test(int), 
 and not nomplain about non-public copy constructor. 

 Intel-3.0, which uses EDG front-end, apparently agrees with the 
 interpretation above, but egcs-1.1 does not.

 Could someone please clarify?

 Regard,
 Mumit

struct test 
{
  test(int);
private:             // making this public "fixes" the problem
  test(const test &hack_to_copy);
};

test testarray[]= { test(3) };
