>Description:
gcc-3.0.5 (prerelease) will not terminate if fed with the 
following code lines: (Note the missing `)´ in line 3.)

-------------<loop.cc>------------
struct A
{
	int foo8(int x)    {  return(foo16(x);  }
	int foo16(int x);
};
--------------------------------

bash# /usr/bin/time gcc -c loop.cc -o loop.o
loop.cc: In member function `int A::foo8(int)':
loop.cc:3: parse error before `;' token
Command terminated by signal 2

[Terminated by ^C after 1 minute on a fairly new 
Athlon system. NOTE: cc1plus is consuming 100% CPU, but 
gcc 0%, so `time´ reports `0%CPU´.]
