problem compiling static const char arrays in 2.95.3 (attached code)

[Deno, Emerson]

I 'm having a problem compiling (actually, linking) a very short program in
g++ 2.95.3

				#include <stdio.h>

				class A
				{
				  public:
				    static const char name[] = "ME";

				};


				main()
				{
				    printf("I AM %s",A::name);
				}
