The following invalid code snippet triggers an ICE since GCC 4.3.0:
================================
#include<typeinfo>
struct A
{
void foo()
{
typeid(foo).name();
}
};
================================
bug.cc: In member function 'void A::foo()':
bug.cc:7: internal compiler error: in write_type, at cp/mangle.c:1695
Please submit a full bug report, [etc.]
Before GCC 4.3.0 the compiler used to generate a valid error message:
bug.cc: In member function 'void A::foo()':
bug.cc:7: error: invalid use of member (did you forget the '&' ?)
