>Description:
Legal redeclaration of a (possibly extern) overloaded 
function inside a method triggers an ICE in pushdecl, at 
cp/decl.c:3855.

This makes it currently impossible to compile Bruno Haible's
CLN library.
>How-To-Repeat:
Just run the attached little program snippet:
baryon:/temp/src$ c++ -c bug17.cc
bug17.cc: In constructor `bar::bar(const char*)':
bug17.cc:15: Tree check: expected class 'd', have 'x' (overload)
bug17.cc:15: Internal compiler error in pushdecl, at cp/decl.c:3855
   Please submit a full bug report.
