4585	"Filesystem library causes ""Internal compiler error"" in gcc 3.2.3."	Steve Soule <sts11dbxr@…>	Beman Dawes	"When compiling Boost 1.44 with gcc 3.2.3, I get the following compile error in the filesystem library:

In file included from boost/boost/filesystem/v3/operations.hpp:25,
                 from boost/libs/filesystem/v3/src/operations.cpp:48:
boost/boost/filesystem/v3/path.hpp: In member function `const std::string
   boost::filesystem3::path::file_string() const':
boost/boost/filesystem/v3/path.hpp:270: Internal compiler error in walk_tree,
   at tree-inline.c:1326

I am using v2 of the filesystem library, not v3, but apparently v3 is built and included in libboost_filesystem even though I'm not using it.

I have no idea what this means or what's causing it, so I'm submitting it to you.  Of course, I can work around it by modifying the Jamfile for filesystem.  But it would be best if Boost just worked instead of forcing me to patch it for each system.

By the way, there is no chance that I will be able to use a newer gcc (than 3.2.3) anytime soon.  This is code for a system where one of the parties supplying code is unwilling to reveal their source code or recompile it with a newer gcc.
