Re: [C++] Ping: patch c++/15049

This turned into a discussion of our policy with respect to C++ standard

in the shuffle. It's small and safe, but I think it's pretty important:
c++/15049 breaks SPEC2004, QT, and probably some other programs we care
about.
thanks, I was confused because your description says
Previous compilers accepted the construct "enum { x = 3 } x;", but
whereas it's become clear you are talking about enum { anything_but_x = 3 } x;
could you recode this bit,
! if (DECL_EXTERN_C_P (decl)
! /* Allow this; it's pretty common in C. */
! || same_type_ignoring_top_level_qualifiers_p(t1, t))
! /* Allow anonymous types; see above. */
! ;
else
{
+ /* It's a typedef referring to an anonymous type. */
as something more like
if (decl_extern)
/*allow this, it's c ...*/;
else if (same_type_ignoring...)
/* Big long description you had in the outer comment. */;
else
{ /* it's a typedef ...*/
and lose the big long description from the outer comment?
ok with that change, thanks.
