Bug ID: 79490 Summary: ICE when compiling CATCH unit testing framework header Product: gcc Version: 6.3.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: c++ Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org Reporter: vz-gcc at zeitlins dot org Target Milestone: --- I can't provide a self-contained example showing the problem, unfortunately, it involves a (huge) header implementing the rather popular CATCH unit testing framework which is available at https://github.com/philsquared/Catch/releases/download/v1.7.1/catch.hpp If you do get this header, the problem is easily reproducible however: % g++ -v Using built-in specs.

See <file:///usr/share/doc/gcc-6/README.Bugs> for instructions. The problem is, in fact, somewhere inside catch.hpp itself as it can also be reproduced with just "g++-6 -c -fsyntax-only -Wall -x c++ -DCATCH_CONFIG_MAIN catch.hpp", but this also gives an unrelated "#pragma system_header ignored" warnings and doesn't give any extra information anyhow (it just points to the end of the file). Again, sorry for the lack of a SSCCE but I failed to find it by trying to compile various parts of catch.hpp separately. Hopefully this report might still be useful even in its current state.
