Unfortunately, I know no c++, but I can confirm that I see the same
problem on a sbmips NetBSD 3.0 box with gcc 3.3.3, but that a -current
sbmips (NetBSD 4.99.13) with gcc 4.1.2 that same test program works OK.
Also, an i386 NetBSD 3.0 with same gcc (3.3.3) fails the same way too,
so it would appear to be a general c++ issue with gcc 3.3.3, rather than
a MIPS issue.
