I have been testing g++ 1.36.0- on some code of mine that won't
compile under 1.35.  I ran into a little bug in the process.  This was
run on a SUN4, if that makes a difference.

The following program causes g++ 1.36.0- (cc1plus) to get a
segmentation violation (in yyparse) when compiled with the flag
-fthis-is-variable:

void bar()
{
    int *i = new int;
}

This slight modification (or leaving off -fthis-is-variable) passes:

void bar()
{
    int *i = new int[1];
}
