>Organization:
>Environment:
Fresh Mandrake 9.0 installation (gcc-2.96 is also installed)
>Description:
Compilation of the file leads to

error_infinite_loop.cpp:6: parse error before `)' token
error_infinite_loop.cpp:7: missing ';' before right brace
error_infinite_loop.cpp: In constructor `foo::foo()':
error_infinite_loop.cpp:6: parse error before `;' token

and the the compiler loops infinitely (without increasing its memory usage)
>How-To-Repeat:
Compile the file with no special flags

g++ error_build_modify_expr.cpp
>Fix:
Do not define the constructor in the body of the class but outside the class.
