 is causing high priority regression PR 8564. The testcase for this PR is
 ------------------------
 struct A { static char* p; };
 
 int i = 1;
 char* A::p = new char[i];
 
 void foo() {}
 ------------------------
 
 It fails like so:
 bash-2.05$ ../gcc/bin-2001-01-02/gcc/cc1plus -O -quiet PR8564.cc
 PR8564.cc: In function `void __static_initialization_and_destruction_0(int, int)':
 PR8564.cc:8: Internal compiler error in find_function_data, at function.c:327
