computers start counting at 0 ;-).

This modified aspect works for me:

---
aspect Cache  {
pointcut calls()=  call("float dummy(...) ") && within ("% A::a(...)") ;
advice calls() :after (){

// cout << "b is "<< *tjp->arg<1>() <<endl;
cout << "in the advice b is "<< *tjp->arg<0>()  <<endl;
}
};

I suppose the problem was that you used the unsafe dynamic join point 
API to access an argument that did not exist. The result is 
undeterministic behavior.

Best regards,
