GNU assembler version 2.9-aix43-000718 (powerpc-ibm-aix4.3.3.0) using BFD version 2.9-aix43-000718

>Description:
If I define a class which derives from ostream, I can construct and use it as an output stream without any problems.  However, if I also #include <fstream> in the same file, an exception gets thrown during the construction of my class.  The code given below demonstrates this.  The exception gets thrown on line 24 of /opt/gcc-3.0-010424/include/g++-v3/bits/basic_ios.tcc, during the call to use_facet<__numput_type>(_M_ios_locale) in basic_ios<_CharT, _Traits>::init(basic_streambuf<_CharT, _Traits>* __sb)

>How-To-Repeat:
#include <iostream>

// Uncomment this and an exception gets thrown when mystream gets
// constructed
// #include <fstream>

using std::ostream;
using std::cout;
using std::endl;

class NDumpContext : public ostream
{

public:
	
	NDumpContext() : ostream(cout.rdbuf())
	{

	}

	virtual ~NDumpContext()
	{

	}

	NDumpContext(ostream& rhs)
		: ostream(rhs.rdbuf())
	{

	}

	virtual void Flush()
	{
		flush();
	}

};


int main()
{
	NDumpContext mystream(cout);
	cout << "Output to cout" << endl;
	mystream << "Output to mystream" << endl;
}
