>Description:
adding "-ggdb" flag causes "Internal compiler error in default_no_named_section, at varasm.c:5305". works OK for just "-g". Full command and output:

% g++ -v -save-temps -c -ggdb UtilityExcepts.ii

>How-To-Repeat:
Just specify "-ggdb" when compiling. It does the same thing with any file; here's the simplest one I've tried:

class UtilityExcepts {
public:
    UtilityExcepts( const char* desc = "" );
  const char*  description;
};

UtilityExcepts::UtilityExcepts( const char* desc )
  :	description( desc )
{}
