I am using G++ 2.3.2 on SunOS 4.1.1 on a sparcStation 1.  It generates bad
  assembly code when function templates are used.

The code supplied below compiles and runs correctly under Borland C++ on DOS.

#include <stdio.h>

class base {
public:
	int value;
	const char *string;
	base () { string = "BASE"; };
};

class d1 : public base {
public:
	const char *string;
	d1 () { string = "D1"; };
};

class d2 : public base {
public:
	const char *string;
	d2 () { string = "D2"; };
};


template <class T>
const char *getString (T *p_class)
{
	return (p_class->string);
};


int main ()
{
	base o_base;
	d1 o_d1;
	d2 o_d2;

	printf ("%s %s %s\n",
		getString (&o_base),
		getString (&o_d1),
		getString (&o_d2));

	return (0);
}
