            Bug ID: 88951
           Summary: No fpermissive offerred on 'error: jump to case label'
           Product: gcc
           Version: 9.0
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: c++
          Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
          Reporter: sbence92 at gmail dot com
  Target Milestone: ---

r263551 removes the possibility to compile the below code with fpermissive.
This code has always been compiled by GCC, why remove the option now? This
breaks backward compatibility with some legacy code.


void f()
{
    switch(0)
    {
        int x = 0;
        case 0:
    }
}
