g++, trunk, recent weird mismatch for arguments with forwarded declaration when attributes are involved


Since about 2010/09/07 i've had a weird error with a mismatched
prototype involving an argument once forward declared as 'class foo;'
and later defined as 'class __attribute((aligned(16))) foo {...};', a
bit like
namespace n1 {
  class fwd;
  namespace n2 {
	class foo {
	  void bar(fwd &);
	};
  }
  class __attribute((aligned(16))) fwd {};
}
// error prototype for... candidate is... would be here.
void n1::n2::foo::bar(n1::fwd &) {}

Except that's no testcase because it works: to kludge around, i have
to forward declare with matching attributes (or get an error).
I fail to reduce it, and the source code is large & fugly; i'd prefer
not to have to disclose, hence no formal bug report.
My hope being that will ring a bell for whoever's responsible :)

PS: x86-64/32, linux, -std=c++0x.
