>Description:
	try with g++ -c on this simple wrong code:
// --- cut here --
#include <iostream>
#include <set>
using namespace std;

template<class T>
class X
{
  
public:
  X() {}
  virtual ~X() { }
  
  bool operator()( T*, T* ) const { return true; }

protected:
  T* x;
  set< X<T>*, X<T> > aset; // <-- THIS IS THE WRONG CODE X<T> for less-than op
  
};

class Y : public X<int>
{
public:

};
// --- cut here --

>How-To-Repeat:
  g++ -c <code.cxx>
>Fix:
  check why loop on set STL _Compare using class itself for less-than op
