The following program

-------cut here---------
#include <new.h>

class foo
{
public:
  int baz;
  foo(int b): baz(b) {}
};

main()
{
  foo* foop = (foo*) malloc(sizeof(foo));
  foop = new {foop} foo(4);
}
-------cut here---------

where new.h comes from libg++-2.0,
does not link successfully.

However, when I comment out the #pragma interface line of new.h, it
does link successfully.  The file new.h includes an inline static
definition of the function that is claimed to be undefined.

I am not making the same complaint as the gentleman who complained
that nm showed a particular symbol to be undefined.  I am complaining
that inlining does not happen in the presence of #pragma interface, at
least for operator new with placement syntax.

That is why I'm sending this to g++.bug, not to libg++.bug.

Sparc 2.  Sunos 4.1.  Gcc 2.1, with Tiemann and Stump patches.
