>Description:
The attached program calls two versions of a function,
one inlined and the other not. The inlined function does
not behave correctly. The type casting of a (char *)
argument to (const char *) as an argument to another funtion
that takes (const char *&) does not properly modify the
argument in the calling function in the inlined version.
>How-To-Repeat:
#include <iostream>


void frob2 (const char*& s)
{
  s += 3;
}


inline void frob_fail (char *s)
{
  frob2((const char *)s);

  cerr << "should be 34567: " << s << endl;
}


void frob_pass (char *s)
{
  frob2((const char *)s);

  cerr << "should be 34567: " << s << endl;
}


int main (unsigned argc, const char *const argv[])
{
  char *x = "01234567";
  frob_fail(x);

  char *y = "01234567";
  frob_pass(y);
}

 fatal_io_error.
