Bug#195468: g++-3.3: default construction fails when no explicit default constructor defined

No. Look at 8.5/9:

# If no initializer is specified for an object, and the object is of
# (possibly cv-qualified) non-POD class type (or array thereof), the
# object shall be default-initialized; if the object is of
# const-qualified type, the underlying class type shall have a
# user-declared default constructor.

Your objects have const-qualified type, and the underlying class has
no user-declared default constructor, hence your program is
ill-formed. 

Whether there would be any members with indeterminate state is
irrelevant, as is the fact that three other compilers fail to find
that ill-formedness.
