🚀 go-pugleaf

Configuration:
  Sun-4  SunOS 4.0.3
  g++    1.36.2 from interviews.stanford.edu
  libg++ 1.36.1 from prep.ai.mit.edu

Problem:
  g++ loops or dumps core (fatal signal 6)

Consider the following code
---------------------------------------------
class BinTree {
protected:
  short    d;
  short    n;

public:
  BinTree(short dim, short N);
  BinTree(short dim, short N) {
    if ((dim*N + 1) <= 100) {
      d = dim; n = N;
    }
   };
};

int
main() {
  BinTree b(3,2);
}
---------------------------------------------

Compiling this gives:

g++ version 1.36.2 (based on GCC 1.36)
 /usr/local/lib/1.36.2/gcc-cpp -+ -v -undef -D__GNUC__ -D__GNUG__ -D__cplusplus
-Dsparc -Dsun -Dunix -D__sparc__ -D__sun__ -D__unix__ gaga2.cc /usr/tmp/cca17997.cpp
GNU CPP version 1.36
 /usr/local/lib/1.36.2/gcc-cc1plus /usr/tmp/cca17997.cpp -quiet -dumpbase gaga2.cc -version -o /usr/tmp/cca17997.s
GNU C++ version 1.36.2 (based on GCC 1.36) (sparc) compiled by GNU C version 1.36.
default target switches: -mfpu -mepilogue
newg++: Program cc1plus got fatal signal 6.

Sometimes the compiler dumps core, sometimes it loops!!!
If I transform the code to

---------------------------------------------
class BinTree {
protected:
  short    d;
  short    n;

public:
  BinTree(short dim, short N);
};

BinTree::BinTree(short dim, short N) 
{
  if ((dim*N + 1) <= 100) {
    d = dim; n = N;
  }
};

int
main() {
  BinTree b(3,2);
}
---------------------------------------------

it compiles without any errors.
