>Environment:
Linux x86, but this is platform independent
>Description:
If a variable declaration follows directly to a case label the compiler reports an error.  C99 allows this and gcc must support it if -std=c99 or -stdc=gnu99 is used.

>How-To-Repeat:
Compile:

int foo (int x) { switch (x) { case 1: int y = x; return y; default: return x + 1; } }
>Fix:
N/A
