gcc bug

[Gerardo Hermosillo]

The following code produces an internal compiler error, unless F2 is 
declarated before F1.

// ### FILE tata.C ####
struct A {

    void F1 () { 
        int i;
        F2(i);
    }
    
    template < typename Int > 
    void F2 ( Int x ) { }
};

int main() {
    A a;
    a.F1();
}
