Hello there,

Given the following code,

class A
{
public :
        A() ;
        ~A() ;
private :
        int a ;
        int b ;
        typedef int A::* pm ;
        struct A1
        {
                pm p ;
        } ;
        static A1       tbl[] ;
} ;

A::A1           
A::tbl[ 2 ] = 
{ &A::a  , 
	 &A::b  } ;

then it looks legal to me, and most of the compilers I have agree with
this opinion. However, Gcc 2.3.1 produces the following

kanze28.cc:20: error: invalid initializer
kanze28.cc:14: error: storage size of `tbl' isn't known
