System: NetBSD ctps01.mit.edu 1.2_BETA NetBSD 1.2_BETA (ctp-sun-slc) #1: Wed Jul 17 11:34:21 EDT 1996 ivanenko@ctps01.mit.edu:/usr/src/sys/arch/sparc/compile/ctp-sun-slc sparc


>Description:
	

Here is the code:

class def1 {
protected:
  int var;
public:
  def1() { var = 1; };
  ~def1() {};
};

class def2 {
protected:
  int var;
public:
  def2() { var = 2; };
  ~def2() {};
};

class def3 : public def1, public def2 {
public:
  int f(int) {return def1::var + def2::var;};
};

main() {
  def3 d;
  int var = 3;

  d.f(var);
}

/* End of file */

When I compile it with gcc 2.7.2 I am getting an error
g++ -v /ctpa03/ivanenko/tmp/bug.cc

/ctpa03/ivanenko/tmp/bug.cc: In function `int main()':
/ctpa03/ivanenko/tmp/bug.cc:26: request for member `var' is ambiguous

The variable 'var' in main() has nothing to do with def1::var or
def2::var.

I saw this error on several systems, I believe it is not
system-specific. The output above was produced on NetBSD-1.2/sparc, 
I tested also on NetBSD-1.2/mac68k, Sparc/Solaris.

As a hint I can say that g++ 2.6.3 compile the code without a warning 
(but I did not check correctness)

I sent the report to bugs-g++ too.
