DotNet Visual C: ICE with __declspec(dllimport) psymtab.c line 4227

• We write lots of cross platform code at my company. To facilitate
  this, class declarations are handled like this (simplification):

  #if defined(_WIN32)
  #if defined(BUILDLIB)
  #define CLASSDECLARE( c ) class __declspec(dllexport) c
  #else
  #define CLASSDECLARE( c ) class c //note the absence of dllimport
  #endif
  #endif

  #if defined(_SOMEOTHERPLATFORM)
  #define CLASSDECLARE( c ) //irrelevent never seen by cl.exe
  #endif

  ....

  CLASSDECLARE( MyClass )
  {
  public:
  ....
  }

  Changing CLASSDECLARE in the case that BUILDLIB is not defined to

  #define CLASSDECLARE( c ) class __declspec(dllimport) c

  cases an ICE:

  fatal error C1001: INTERNAL COMPILER ERROR (compiler file
  'f:\vs70builds\3077\vc\Compiler\Utc\src\P2\p2symta b.c', line 4227)

  Solid : error PRJ0002 : error result returned from 'cl.exe'.

     Geoffrey,

     Can you give us a minimal concrete example - something that can be
     simply pasted into a console application and cause the problem.
