[gfsd]error in gcc version 2.96

[michiel . visser]

I want to report a possible bug in gcc:

The compiler does not give a warning when overloading a function as a static 
function.

example:

class A
{
public:
   int func() { return 0; }
};

class B: public A
{
     static int func() { return instance->func(); }  // this is a recursive 
function !
     static B *instance;
};

B* B::instance;
