Consider this little gem:

    class base {
    public:
      virtual operator int() const = 0;
    };

When run by cfront 2.0, I get:

    "conversion.C", line 3: internal <<AT&T C++ Translator 2.0 06/30/89>> 
                            error: signature of  0

Removing the "= 0" makes the problem go away.  Could someone with a 2.1
compiler please tell me if this bug has been fixed?

Thanks a lot,

Scott
