I am filing this bug to track the process of this regression.
It was caused by the following patch:

PR c++/21687
* parser.c (cp_parser_class_specifier): Push/pop GC contexts
around functions in local classes.
The reason why this fails is because the zone allocator does not have
ggc_{push,pop}_context.
All push/pop context's were removed in 4.0.0 for speed and they were not needed
any more.
This is also a regression on the release branch from a previous release from
that branch which is really
bad news.
