Can you explain a bit more about what you are trying to do, because
the following compiles fine for me:
>>> tst.h
>>> =======
>>> typedef struct _tst{
>> ...
>>> } tst;
>>
>>> tst2.h
>>> =======
>>> #include "tst.h"
>>>
>>> int foo(tst t);
>>
>>> tst.c
>>> =======
>>> #include <stdio.h>
>>> #include "tst2.h"
>>>
>>> int foo(tst t){ return 1; };
>> ...
when compiling with "gcc tst.c"
That is with gcc 4.2.4, not that I think it should make a difference.
