This workaround is required for decltype, I don't see why typeof should be any different. The reason is that decltype(obj) doesn't declare a new type-name, it is only a simple-type-specifier, which cannot appear in a nested-name-specifier. The typedef workaround introduces a new type-name, which is allowed in a nested-name-specifier. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=6709
