g++ 2.2.2 template bug

cc1plus seems to get upset when it can't instantiate an appropriate version
of a template function to match a given call. This happens on Sun 3 and
Sun 4 machines running SunOS 4.1.1, and on an SGI Indigo running Irix 4.0.1.
See the attatched example to reproduce the problem. Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Steve.

$ cat x.c
template <class T>
void
g(T x)
{
}

void
f()
{
	g();	// There is no g() for this call to match
	        // so cc1plus goes gaga...
}
$ g++ -v -c x.c
