The following example illustrates a bug with g++ 1.36.1:

----------------------------------------
#include <stdio.h>

class foo
{
public:
  foo () {printf ("foo ()\n");}
private:
  ~foo () {printf ("~foo ()\n");}
};

main ()
{
  foo *bar = new foo;
}
----------------------------------------

g++ complains:

test.c:9: class `foo' only defines a private destructor and has no friends

cfront 2.0 compiles this with no problems.
