Old Synopsis: typedefs in template class
New Synopsis: [3.2 regression] ICE with typedefs in template class

State-Changed-From-To: open->analyzed
State-Changed-By: bangerth
State-Changed-When: Thu Feb  6 19:57:53 2003
State-Changed-Why:
    Confirmed: ICEs with 3.2.*, works with 2.95, 3.3 and 3.4.
    Here's a redux:
    ----------------------------
    template<typename T> struct X {
      typedef T* type();
      type t;
    };
    template struct X<int>;
    ------------------------
    tmp/g> /home/bangerth/bin/gcc-3.2.2-pre/bin/c++ -c x.cc
    x.cc: In instantiation of `X<int>':
    x.cc:5:   instantiated from here
    x.cc:3: internal error: Segmentation fault
    Please submit a full bug report,
    
    
    I am unsure about the validity of the code, in particular
      typedef T* type();
    I guess at the best this would qualify as a reference to
    a function. Making this a pointer-to-function like
      typedef T* (*type)();
    makes the compilation go through. So I guess this is an
    ICE-on-illegal.
