template bug in gcc 2.3.1 (core dump)

The following code core-dumps g++ version 2.3.1, running on a SPARCstation 2
under Sun OS 4.1.1.  I believe the code is correct and should compile.
The messages output are:

array.hh: In function `int  main (int, char **)':
array.hh:56: inconsistent return types for method `Array' in class `Array<int ,i
nt>'
array.hh:56: inconsistent return types for method `Array' in class `Array<int ,i
nt>'
/usr/local/bin/gcc: Internal compiler error: program cc1plus got fatal signal 11


Apparently it does not recognize the constructor as a constructor.

------------ code follows -------------
#ifndef _SUPPORT_BOOLEAN_H
#define _SUPPORT_BOOLEAN_H

class Boolean
{
 public:
  inline Boolean ();
  // default constructor (result is False)
   
  inline Boolean (const long);
  inline operator long () const;
  // Convert between Boolean and long

 private:
   long Bit;
};

extern const Boolean& True;
extern const Boolean& False;

inline Boolean::Boolean ()
  : Bit (0)
{}

inline Boolean::Boolean (const long That)
  : Bit (That != 0)
{}

inline Boolean::operator long () const 
{
    return Bit; 
}

#endif
