What does "died" mean in this case? The above code is illegal, and
shouldn't compile (regardless of which version of A you define).

"Died" means abnormal VS 2005 compiler termination.

You mean an internal compiler error? That's sort of a proof
that you've encountered a compiler but.

If select the case "struct A{void a(){}};" this code compilled OK on
VS 2005.
On G++ compiler this code is really illegal.

The code is illegal. If a compiler doesn't complain (emit a
diagnostic), it's a bug. (Assuming, of course, that you've
invoked it as a conformant compiler, with all extensions turned
off.)
