assembler problem with numeric template-arguments

[Thomas Kunert]

Hi,
The following code doesn't compile.

[tom@ptpp09 c++]$ cat h1.cc
template <int N> class A{};

template <int N1, int N2>
A < (N1 < N2 ? N1 : N2) > f( A<N1>, A<N2> )
{
 return A< (N1 < N2 ? N1 : N2 ) > ();
}

int main()
{
  f( A<1>(), A<2>() );
  return 0;
}

[tom@ptpp09 c++]$ g++ h1.cc
/tmp/cca20137.s: Assembler messages:

[tom@ptpp09 c++]$                                                   

The assembler code looks like this:

64: .section	.gnu.linkonce.t.f__H2i1i2_Gt1A1iY01Gt1A1iY11_t1A1i
*0,"ax",@progbits
65: 	.align 4
66: 	.weak	f__H2i1i2_Gt1A1iY01Gt1A1iY11_t1A1i *0
67: 	.type	 f__H2i1i2_Gt1A1iY01Gt1A1iY11_t1A1i *0,@function
68: f__H2i1i2_Gt1A1iY01Gt1A1iY11_t1A1i *0:

The same Problem I get with egcs-1.0.1 and gcc-2.8.0.
I have tried this on AIX and get similar messages.
