On this c++ code:
struct C {
struct foo { int A; }
void method();
};
G++ 3.4 and above print the useless error message:
t.cpp:3: error: new types may not be defined in a return type
t.cpp:3: error: two or more data types in declaration of `method'
G++ 3.3 prints something like this (which is actually useful):
t.cpp:2: error: semicolon missing after declaration of `foo'
t.cpp:2: error: ISO C++ forbids defining types within return type
t.cpp:2: error: two or more data types in declaration of `method'
t.cpp:2: error: semicolon missing after declaration of `struct foo'
This probably also happens at global scope.
