[Bug c++/20826] New: 4.0 regression: excessive compiler resource usage

[dwmw2 at infradead dot org]

Compiling the attached file with '-fno-enforce-eh-specs -O2' on a 450MHz G4 with
gcc 3.4 takes 30 seconds. Compiling it with gcc 4 on a 1.3GHz G4 takes a number
of hours before failing:
cc1plus: out of memory allocating 1643995136 bytes after a total of 94982144 bytes

This are both 64-bit-capable toolchains, defaulting to 32-bit output. (Fedora
Core 3 and Fedora Core 4 respectively, on PPC).
