>Description:
When compiling the attached unnamed2.c with 3.3 mainline,
the code is rejected:

unnamed2.c:9: warning: declaration does not declare anything
unnamed2.c: In function `main':
unnamed2.c:16: error: structure has no member named `z'

Whereas 3.2.2 accepts the code, so this is clearly a regression.

Note that the ntfs driver in Linux kernel 2.5.65 uses this extension and thus breaks when compiled with 3.3.

>How-To-Repeat:
Compile the attached code.
