-------------------------------------------------------------

This is happening because we don't use the -qrtti=dynamiccast option. We 
internally use a dynamic_cast to determine if the facet is of the correct 
derived type, but if dynamic_cast isn't supported we use a C style cast, and 
that returns bad results.

This case is essentially the same as STDCXX-664. We didn't add 
-qrtti=dynamiccast back then, and we just worked around the issue in the test. 
It seems to me that we should have added the flag. Would this be a binary 
compatible change?
