GCC 4.0 fails to diagnose cases of parameter forward declarations followed by no normal parameter declarations, such as
int g1(int a;); int g2(int a; __attribute__((unused))); int g3(int;); int g4(int, long;); The same applies to 4.1 once I've fixed bug 23143. 3.4 diagnoses these cases. -- Summary: [4.0/4.1 Regression] invalid parameter forward declarations not diagnosed Product: gcc Version: 4.1.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: c AssignedTo: unassigned at gcc dot gnu dot org ReportedBy: jsm28 at gcc dot gnu dot org CC: gcc-bugs at gcc dot gnu dot org http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=23144
