Hello there,

The following code used to not compile, but on egcs-980615 it does.

void
function() {
	int var = 0;
	return (void) ++var;
}

I think that this code should not be compilable, and would like to find
out which bit of the ISO spec says this is ok.

I've checked with other C++ compilers, and they don't compile the code
either.

Regards
