[Bug c++/24567] New: poor diagnostics

["igodard at pacbell dot net" <gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org>]

int operator-(foo a, foo b) {}

struct bar {
    int operator-(foo a, foo b) {}
    };

gets you:

~/ootbc/members/src$ g++ foo.cc
foo.cc:1: error: declaration of `operator-' as non-function
foo.cc:1: error: `foo' was not declared in this scope
foo.cc:1: error: `foo' was not declared in this scope
foo.cc:1: error: expected `,' or `;' before '{' token
foo.cc:4: error: declaration of `operator-' as non-function
foo.cc:4: error: expected `;' before '(' token
foo.cc:5: error: expected `;' before '}' token


The undeclared names are not reported in the member function, and both produce
cascaded diagnostics.
