gcc 4.0 incorrectly rejects the following valid code:
typedef struct { void f(); } f;
void f::f() { }
It treats f::f as referring to a constructor, and then gets confused because
this isn't the right syntax for
a constructor definition. However (12.1/3), "a typedef-name that names a class
shall not be used as
the identifier in the declarator for a constructor declaration."
Note that this only happens for an anonymous class. If I instead write
typedef struct e { void f(); } f;
then this compiles without error.
This is a regression. 3.3 handles this correctly.
