The crash is due to change that I had made, and is fixed. I'll issue an
update sometime soon with fixed cc1plus.exe.

Here's what you get now (and will get with stock/vanilla egcs 1.1):

  cc1bug.cc:2: syntax error before `@'
  cc1bug.cc:5: warning: ANSI C++ forbids declaration `' with no type
  cc1bug.cc:5: abstract declarator `int' used as declaration
  cc1bug.cc:6: parse error before `}'
