Bug description and report:
===============================================================================
This seems to be a parsing problem relative to a default constructor call.

Apparently, when a default constructor is called while surrounded by
parentheses, g++ rejects the program.

Is it a bug ?

It does not seem coherent to accept line 2 and reject line 3.

PS: Thank you for your great work, I hope this mail will help.
    Could you please let me know about this mail and its implications.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
% cat -n default-constructor.cc
     1	class foo {};
     2	foo f_without_parentheses_is_ok = foo ();
     3	foo f_with_parentheses_causes_a_bug = (foo ());

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
% egcs-g++ -E default-constructor.cc
# 1 "default-constructor.cc"
class foo {};
foo f_without_parentheses_is_ok = foo ();
foo f_with_parentheses_causes_a_bug = (foo ());

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
% egcs-g++ -c default-constructor.cc 
default-constructor.cc:3: parse error before `;'
