>Environment:
Linux 2.4.17	
>Description:
The attached program causes gcc 3.0.4 to die with:

const-expression-i339.cc: In function `int main()':
const-expression-i339.cc:11: Internal error: Segmentation fault
Please submit a full bug report,
with preprocessed source if appropriate.
See <URL:http://www.gnu.org/software/gcc/bugs.html> for instructions.

A similar death occurs with gcc version 3.2 20020325 (experimental)
See ISO C++ core issue 339.
>How-To-Repeat:
template <int I> struct A {};

char xxx(int);
char xxx(float);

template <class T> A<sizeof(xxx((T)0))> f(T){}

int main()
{
  f(1);
}
>Fix:
According to John Spicer, a solution might require
enhancing template name mangling to be able to include
arbitrary expressions.
