>Description:

try to compile this code: 

=== Cut ===
class fooObject {};
typedef void (fooObject::*Func)();
class foobar : public fooObject {
    void add(Func fncHandler);
    void somefunc();
    void init() { add(static_cast<Func>(&(foobar::somefunc))); }
};
=== Cut ===

The code might look a bit stupid, its a minimum testcase. the actual code
is different. 

command line: 
#g++ -c foobar.cpp

error message: 

invalid static_cast from type `<unknown type>' to type `void (fooObject::*)()'

Code compiles fine with any previous gcc/egcs release. Is broken
with gcc CVS for quite a while already.
