Compiling the following one line:
void f(int i = 0, int j) {}
produces the following error, as appropriate:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] /usr/misc/pkg/gcc-4.0.2/bin/g++ -c default.cc
default.cc: In function `void f(int, int)':
default.cc:1: error: default argument missing for parameter 2 of `void f(int,
int)'
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
However, compiling the following analogous code produces no errors, even though
it should:
struct T {
T(int i = 0, int j) {}
void m(int i = 0, int j) {}
};

This behavior is replicated in 4.0.1, 4.0.0, 3.4.4, and 3.4.3.
