I am having a problem with g++ 3.0.2 using -fvolatile.

1>@awk[114]% g++ -v
Reading specs from /u/asharji/gcc/gcc302/bin/../lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.0.2/specs
Configured with: /u/asharji/gcc/gcc-3.0.2/configure --prefix=/u/asharji/gcc/gcc302/
Thread model: single
gcc version 3.0.2

When I compile without -fvolatile, it works:

1>@awk[117]% g++ test1.cc -c

But not when I compile with -fvolatile:

1>@awk[118]% g++ test1.cc -c -fvolatile
test1.cc: In member function `void foo::mem()':
test1.cc:14: Internal error #20000521.
test1.cc:14: Internal compiler error in build_new_1, at cp/init.c:2426

This error does not occur with gcc-2.95.3:

@tcl[104]% g++ -v
Reading specs from /u/asharji/gcc/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/2.95.3/specs
gcc version 2.95.3 20010315 (release)

@tcl[110]% g++ test1.cc -c

@tcl[111]% g++ test1.cc -c -fvolatile

@tcl[112]% 
>How-To-Repeat:
1>@awk[113]% cat test1.cc 

typedef unsigned int size_t;

class bar {
    int i;
  public :
    void * operator new ( size_t , void * storage );
};

class foo {
    int storage[ 5 ];
  public:
    void mem ( ) {
        bar *s = new ( ( void * ) & storage ) bar;
    }
};
