(This appears to be a GCC front-end bug.  Thus, it will probably manifest
itself on all platforms where GCC runs.)

The following code, when compiled with no special options, causes cc1
to crash with a fatal signal 11 when using GCC 2.7.0 or 2.7.2 on the
sparc-sun-solaris2.4 platform... and probaby also many other platforms.

I do not have a fix (yet).

Note that this example was derived (and greatly simplified) from a much
larger translation unit, namely:

	socks.cstc.4.2.2/rtelnet/telnet/commands.c

The workaround is to simply delete the block-local external declaration of
htons within the `tn' function in socks.cstc.4.2.2/rtelnet/telnet/commands.c.

(Note that the definition of htons is provided by <sys/byteorder.h>.)

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
static __inline__ int
htons (int __arg)
{
  return __arg;
}

int us;

void
tn ()
{
    int htons ();

    htons(us);
}
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Workaround patch:
