I see plenty of reasons: It is a obscure bug, there are easy work-arounds,
there are very few G++ developers (maybe 4-5 sporadic and two full-time? I am
not even sure they are actually full-time...), and there are literally
thousands of other bugs requiring attention. Any help would be welcome.

G++ is written in C++. The C++ FE is mostly isolated from other parts of the
compiler and the parser is almost solely contained in gcc/cp/parser.c. If you
know enough C++, you should be able to follow what it does. I am not saying it
is pretty or easy, but it is doable. If you can use a debugger, you could
figure out why g++ is getting confused here and what it should do instead.
