"Internal compiler error" when compiling ACE

Thanks for your bug report. gcc-2.95 19990606 compiles your code just
fine, so it seems that the bug has been fixed.

It's not obvious, but it is explained in

Since the egcs team took over the GCC maintainance, the next release
of egcs will be called "GCC 2.95" (so it is also a direct successor to
gcc 2.8). The release after that might well be named "GCC 3".

Hope this helps,
Martin
