------- Comment #2 from jsm28 at gcc dot gnu dot org 2009-11-22 20:24 ------- If you wish to report a C++ bug, it needs to have component "c++" and be a separate bug from any bug report for C front-end issues; comments about possible C++ front-end issues in "c" bugs are irrelevant except insofar as they illuminate questions of what the C front end should do.
For C, the qualifiers are ignored as far as standard terms are concerned. Whether typeof applied to an rvalue in GNU C has a qualified types is fundamentally confused at present; my inclination is that we should eliminate the inconsistent attempts to give rvalues qualified types in some cases, and say that if the operand of typeof is not an lvalue it never has a qualified type. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=39985
