I'm not forwarding this to the Octave bugs list until the following
happen:

  * verify that the bug still exists in the current Octave sources (at
    least check 2.9.5, since we already fixed some problems for GCC
    4.1 when we went from 2.9.4 to 2.9.5)

  * Demonstrate that the bug is in Octave, not g++.  What intentional
    change in g++ could cause this error to happen?

Thanks,

jwe
