[Bug c++/14693] New: Parse error using operator<<

[loose at astron dot nl]

The following code demonstrates a parse error. I've run this code through 
several version of the g++ compiler (2.95.3, 3.1, 3.2.1, 3.2.3 and 3.3.2) and 
all exhibit the same behaviour. To check the validity of the code I also ran it 
through the Intel C++ compiler (v8.0) and it compiled fine.

$ cat g++-parser-bug.cc
#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

class Expr
{
public:
  Expr() {}
  friend Expr operator>(const Expr& lhs, const Expr& rhs) { return Expr(); }
  friend ostream& operator<<(ostream& os, const Expr& e) { return os; }
};

int main()
{
  cout << (Expr() > Expr()) << endl;
}

Confirmed. This is another instance of the parser bug described 
on our bugs page. It is fixed in 3.4.0 and mainline, though.
