           Summary: GCC doesn't accept "auto *f() -> int", but only
                    accepts "auto f() -> int".
           Product: gcc
           Version: 4.6.0
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: c++
        AssignedTo: unassig...@gcc.gnu.org
        ReportedBy: schaub.johan...@googlemail.com


GCC does not like the following

   auto *f() -> int;

"error: 'f' function with late return type has 'auto*' as its type rather than
plain 'auto'"

Nothing in N3225 forbids that, AFAICS. See also
