bug? - compiles using 1.35.0+ but not 1.36.1

I have include a program that compiles using g++ 1.35.0+ (on
panarea.usc.edu, a Sun-3/50 running SunOS 4.0.3) but not using g++ 1.36.1
(on alicudi.usc.edu, a Sun-4/60 running SunOS 4.0.3c). I am not completely
sure that my the problem indicates a bug in the new g++, because I am not
the person that works with g++ source code here. USC University Computing
Services (perhaps tli and/or mcooper at usc.edu) maintains GNU software
centrally for many Sun UNIX systems to NFS-mount.
The problem is related to using C function declarations in C++
using extern "C". It is not related to using the istream class in libg++.
To see the problem, you may follow these instructions:
1. Save this message as "msg" on a UNIX system.
2. Do "uudecode < msg; tar xpvof signal_bug.tar; cd crumbug".
3. Do "make". A compiler error message occurs when
I attempt that with g++ 1.36.1, but not with g++ 1.35.0.
The uuencoded tar file used in above procedure is included at the end of
this message.
Here is a script of my attempt to compile "bug.cc" with 1.36.1, but it is
not necessary for you to look at this script if you don't want to.
My uucoded tar file attachment was meant to save you time by eliminating
the need for extracting code from this message.
---
alicudi:~/pal/g++_notes/crumbug g++ -version
gcc version 1.36.1 (based on GCC 1.36)
alicudi:~/pal/g++_notes/crumbug make
g++ -g -c bug.cc
bug.cc: In function void catch_signals ():
bug.cc:9: argument passing between incompatible pointer types
bug.cc:10: argument passing between incompatible pointer types
bug.cc:11: argument passing between incompatible pointer types
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `bug.o'

bug, when I compile "bug.cc" with 1.35.0+:
---
panarea:~/pal/g++_notes/crumbug g++ -version
g++ version 1.35.0+
panarea:~/pal/g++_notes/crumbug make
g++ -g -c bug.cc
panarea:~/pal/g++_notes/crumbug
---
The above results in bug.o being created. Here is bug.cc:
---
extern "C" {
#include <signal.h>
}
extern int badNews(int code=0, char* context="");
void catch_signals()
{
signal(SIGFPE, badNews);
signal(SIGBUS, badNews);
signal(SIGSEGV, badNews);
}
---
The declaration of the function signal() in /usr/include/signal.h is:
---
void (*signal())();
---
The file /usr/include/signal.h is identical on both systems I use.
My workaround is to use my own declaration for signal(), in the C++ style,
instead of including the system signal.h file. The declaration I use is:
---
#define SIGFPE 8 /* floating point exception */
#define SIGBUS 10 /* bus error */
#define SIGSEGV 11 /* segmentation violation */
extern void (*signal(int, void*))();
---
This is the end of my bug report. If you cannot address my report
immediately, then please acknowledge receipt of this message to avoid
a retransmission. I would appreciate such an acknowledgement.

Errata:
My instructions included the line:
2. Do "uudecode < msg; tar xpvof signal_bug.tar; cd crumbug".
Change that to:
2. Do "uudecode < msg; tar xpvof crumbug.tar; cd crumbug".
(While composing the message I decided to change the name of the tar file
from "signal_bug.tar" to "crumbug.tar".) So, the complete procedure to
make the crumbug tree becomes:
To see the problem, you may follow these instructions:
1. Save this message as "msg" on a UNIX system.
2. Do "uudecode < msg; tar xpvof signal_bug.tar; cd crumbug".
3. Do "make". A compiler error message occurs when
I attempt that with g++ 1.36.1, but not with g++ 1.35.0.
I have included the save uuencode tar file with this message
for your convenience.
