Summary: Inconsistent parsing of empty/void lists of parameters
in function declarators with forward declarations of
parameters
Product: gcc
Version: 16.0
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3

alx@debian:~/tmp$ cat void_fwd.c | nl -ba
1 void f(void);
2 void f(void; );
3 void f(void; void);
4 void f( ; void);
5 void f( ; );
alx@debian:~/tmp$ gcc void_fwd.c
void_fwd.c:3:14: error: ‘void’ must be the only parameter
3 | void f(void; void);
| ^~~~
void_fwd.c:3:8: error: parameter ‘({anonymous})’ has just a forward declaration
3 | void f(void; void);
| ^~~~
void_fwd.c:4:12: error: expected declaration specifiers or ‘...’ before ‘;’
token
4 | void f( ; void);

void_fwd.c:5:12: error: expected declaration specifiers or ‘...’ before ‘;’
token
5 | void f( ; );

I think that either we diagnose all of the lines 2,3,4,5, or we should diagnose
none of them.
Especially, it doesn't make sense to allow line 2, but disallow line 3.
