Internal compiler error in GCC 2.96

[Marc Seter]

Dear Sir/Madam -

I recently upgraded my version of gcc, hoping it would eliminate
a compiler error resulting in a segmentation fault in my program.
It did, but introduced at least one more problem.  I am no longer
able to compile a required library.

We are using the GOODS object database library in our applications.
Compiling the file `javamop.cxx' with G++ 2.96 results in an
internal compiler error.  I have appended the xterm text at the end
of this message, and attached the javamop.ii.gz file (compressed
using Slackware 7.0 Linux gzip, compression level 9).

  OS:    Linux (Slackware 7.0)
  G++:   2.96  (checked out anonymously on 2000-07-17)

I will be happy to provide you with any additional information you
might need to solve this issue.  BTW, if you would like the entire
GOODS distribution, it is available for free at:
