[Bug c/24253] New: parse error expected at empty struct declaration

[alexander dot floh at fh-hagenberg dot at]

when declaring an empty struct like
struct {};
there should be a parse error when compiling with -std=c99, since there seem to
be no grammar rule in the c-standard[1] which allows the empty curled braces in
a struct declaration.
visual studio 2003 and the edg parser report this as a parse error.
