Error, if compiled with -O3 (gettext)

[Herbert Straub]

What could be wrong with this simple test program:

#include <string>
#include <iostream>

class foo
{
std::string s;
public:
foo (const char *a) : s(a) {};

std::string gettext (void) { return s; }
};

int main (int argc, char **argv)
{
foo f("test");
std::string a;

a=f.gettext();

std::cout << "Test: " << a << std::endl;

return 0;
}

Compiled and linked with:
g++ -o t1 t1.cxx
../t1
Test: test

And now with -O3:
g++ -O3 -o t1 t1.cxx
t1.cxx:11: error: parse error before `,' token
t1.cxx:11: error: variable declaration is not allowed here
t1.cxx:11: error: syntax error before `{' token
t1.cxx:12: error: parse error before `}' token
t1.cxx: In function `int main(int, char**)':
t1.cxx:19: error: parse error before `,' token
t1.cxx:19: error: `dcgettext' undeclared (first use this function)
t1.cxx:19: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once for
each
function it appears in.)

The semicolon after the body of the constructor should be removed, but
that is not the cause of the trouble.
std::string gettext (void) { return s; }
};

int main (int argc, char **argv)

foo f("test");

Some header defines `gettext' as a macro.

The fact that this also happens when the compiler is invoked in standard
compliant mode (g++ -O3 -std=c++98 -pedantic -o t1 t1.cxx) is a compiler
bug. You should report it; please follow the instructions on how to
report bugs at <http://gcc.gnu.org/>.
