[Bug c/26533] New: error: invalid use of void expression

["kminola at eng dot umd dot edu" <gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org>]

This is probably pretty dodgy C code, but I
find it strange that program foo.c compiles
while program bar.c gives an error.  Is this
a bug?

----------- foo.c --------------
#include <stdio.h>

int main()

{
  int ii;

  ii = 276;
  void *vv = (void *)&ii;
}
----------- foo.c --------------

----------- bar.c --------------
#include <stdio.h>

int main()

{
  int ii;
  void *vv;

  ii = 276;
  *vv = (void *)&ii;
}
----------- bar.c --------------

% gcc -o foo foo.c
% gcc -o bar bar.c
bar.c: In function ESC)B?main?:
bar.c:10: warning: dereferencing ESC)B?void *? pointer
bar.c:10: error: invalid use of void expression
%

For completeness on this report, this was on
