c++.beta - Link error 42: scal_del_dtor(unsigned )

Hi,

Does anyone know how to "fix" this link error?

Error 42: Symbol Undefined ??_Gmy_type nspc  QAEPAXI Z (void *syscall 
nspc::my_type::scal_del_dtor(unsigned ))

My C++ code compiles and links with several releases of GCC as well as 
MSVC++ 6 and 2005.

It is difficult to produce a testcase because it is a multi-file compile 
and link and the error has disappeared in my different tries to reduce 
the size...

Best regards,
Gilles

You could try doing a grep across the obj files and seeing which one is 
referring to it.

Hi,

I know which object file refers to this symbol. I even know which lines 
cause the call to this implicit symbol: both are deletes of a template 
class. However, the template class is used elsewhere without causing 
this link error for the implicit scal_del_dtor method...

Best regards,
Gilles

Ok, but it will help a lot if you can send me a minimal test case that duplicates the problem.
