           Summary: Incorrect main signatures fails to generate diagnostic,
                    program fails
           Product: gcc
           Version: 3.3
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: c++
        AssignedTo: unassigned at gcc dot gnu dot org
        ReportedBy: Michiel dot Salters at logicacmg dot com
                CC: gcc-bugs at gcc dot gnu dot org
 GCC build triplet: sparc-sun-solaris2.9
  GCC host triplet: sparc-sun-solaris2.9
GCC target triplet: sparc-sun-solaris2.9

An attempt to replace 
  int main( int argc, char** argv ) 
by
  int main ( std::string argv )
is not caught at compile time, and subsequent use
of argv causes a Bus Error.

Full program:
#include <string>
#include <iostream>

int main ( std::string argv )
{
  std::cout << argv << std::endl;
}
