If it helps you any, we're affected by very similar things on MacOS X/Darwin.
Code like this used to work with gcc2, but gcc3 fails to link it (The upcoming
10.2 release of MacOS X will be pretty much gcc3.1 exclusively, so we're doing
a lot of testing right now trying to make sure things will compile).  I get the
same error as the test code in that message you referenced:

There are also some problems with similar constructs in qt 3.0.4.  It appears
that HPUX11 and MacOS X's linkers are very much like each other.
