This has shown up in some other things as well.  I have fixed this sort
of problem in g++ before, and it is on my list to fix this one.

It would really help to have a small, self-contained test case.
Could you please try to pare down one of the failing source files to
the bare minimum, and send it to me?

Thanks,
John
