------- Comment #1 from geoffk at gcc dot gnu dot org 2006-11-09 21:49 ------- There is a contradiction here in the ABI. The formal syntax in the ABI says that a <local-name> cannot appear inside a <nested-name>, but the example I mentioned is trying to show that it does. However, the formal syntax in the ABI also says that a <local-name> does not end with a type specification, and if that was true, you couldn't use it for a nested function, because you need to include their argument types to allow overloading. Possibly this is just bug(s) in the ABI, and GCC is doing the right thing.
