[3.3] warnings in include/xregex2.h


hi everybody, 

when i compiled the newest gcc-3.3 snapshot, i got: 

in file included from ../../gcc/include/xregex.h:26,
                 from ../../gcc/libiberty/regex.c:195:
../../gcc/include/xregex2.h:551: warning: ISO C89 does not support `static' or
type qualifiers in parameter array declarators

the line, which caused this: 

extern int regexec _RE_ARGS ((const regex_t *__restrict __preg,
                              const char *__restrict __string, size_t __nmatch,
                              regmatch_t __pmatch[__restrict_arr],              
                              int __eflags));


the problem seems to be the [__restrict_arr], which is defined as "__restrict"
on my system (gcc 3.2.2). 
i'm curious, why is this so? a comment in the same file says (line 533): 

"/* GCC 3.1 and later support declaring arrays as non-overlapping
   using the syntax array_name[restrict]  */"

removing the __restrict_arr in this case fixes the problem.

brg, 
Tolga Dalman.
