Hello

In light of the above, I want to let you know that I still encounter (100% 
reproducible) segmentation violations with 2.7 in CPlusPlus::Type parsing 
(more exactly in CPlusPlus::Type::accept(TypeVisitor*) ).

Unfortunately it doesn't help that the file which triggers the crash upon 
opening is rather large and contains rather complex templates and that I'm in 
a hurry with other things.

I will certainly try to debug this a bit after work today (in about 10h) but I 
thought I'd give a heads up, maybe some of the list readers know about things 
around that part of code.

(An aside comment: given the crucial importance of that code, I guess it will 
require some (better) unit testing...)

Thanks
