System: Linux loki 2.4.9-31smp #1 SMP Tue Feb 26 06:55:00 EST 2002 i686 unknown
Architecture: i686

configured with: ./configure --prefix=/home/aid/smitl/linux
>Description:
The compiler crashes instead of reporting an error in the code for a template
function that returns a wrong type. See code below.
>How-To-Repeat:
Compile the following piece of code:
--------------start here-------------
template<class T>
T MaxS(T X, T Y)
{

}

T MaxS(int X ,int Y) {

}

main() {};
--------------end here---------------
>Fix:
Work around: Write correct code :-)
