 Hmm, it still happens with 20021127 and 20021203 CVS.
 I suspect I've got something wrong with my system.
 
 I've reduced the test case, so it causes an ICE without the #include
 
 int f(int);
 int main()
 {
     char c;        /* any type except int causes ICE */
     int i;
     int c = f(i);
 }
 
 This produces:

 See <URL:http://www.gnu.org/software/gcc/bugs.html> for instructions.
 
 If the two declarations of "c" aren't of the same type, I get an ICE.
 If the declarations are of the same type, it correctly fails to compile,
 without an ICE.
 If I replace the variable "i" with a literal integer, there's no ICE.
 If I make f() take no arguments, there's no ICE.
 
 This was after updating from cvs, deleting my entire build directory,
 configuring and bootstrapping.
