The expression '(y)' below that constitutes the operand to decltype is neither
an unparenthesized id-expression, a class member access, a function call nor an
invocation of an overloaded operator.
Based on the wording in FCD 14882 (WG21 N3092), this parenthesized
id-expression has type int and is an lvalue. The type of decltype((y))
is then 'int &'.
The following test case demonstrates that GCC is finding the type to be
'int &&'. The test case is meant to compile clean.
### Self-contained source (dataa.cpp):
extern int &&y;
typedef int &myIntRef;
typedef decltype((y)) myIntRef;
### Command to reproduce:
g++ -std=c++0x -c dataa.cpp
### Compiler output:
dataa.cpp:3:23: error: conflicting declaration 'typedef int&& myIntRef'
dataa.cpp:2:14: error: 'myIntRef' has a previous declaration as 'typedef int&
myIntRef'
### g++ -v output:
Using built-in specs.
