A colleague has a strange problem trying to use libg++ 1.35 streams.
He sends me the following description.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
/* Why does third item on line marked "BUG!" (line 27) not get printed? */

#include <stream.h>
#include <stdio.h>

class counter
{
  private:
    unsigned int value;
  public:
    counter(int init=5);
        counter( counter& );
    ~counter();
    unsigned int operator+ (counter);
};

main()
{
        int k ;

        counter c1;
        counter c2(7);

        // removing next line will result in core dump instead
        printf("int = %d\n", k);

        cout << "BUG!    "  << (c1+c2) << " Why not printed? \n";
        cout << "\n";

        // IF preceding/following 2 lines switched, get other results!!
        k = c1+c2;
        cout << "No bug  " << k     << " Printed. \n";
}

counter::counter(int init)
{
        value = init;
        cout << form("constructor %d\n", value);
}

counter::counter( counter& i )
{
        value = i.value;
    cout << form("call-by-value %d\n", value);
}

counter::~counter()
{
        cout << form("destructor %d \n", value);
}

unsigned int counter::operator+ (counter other)
{
        return value + other.value;
}
