>Description:
This ICE is caused by a class nested inside a local class of a templated member function.  The code snippet below is illustrative of the ICE in my application.  I found that small changes in the snippet cause the ICE to disappear, or to pop up in another place.  For example, just replacing

                      void funct();
with
                      void funct(){}

causes the ICE to disappear!
