           Summary: variables with name 'default' cannot be used
           Product: gcc
           Version: 3.2.2
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: c++
        AssignedTo: unassigned at gcc dot gnu dot org
        ReportedBy: gvacanti at cosine dot nl
                CC: gcc-bugs at gcc dot gnu dot org

The following piece of code:

(in file bug.c or bug.cc)

int main() {
   double default = 4;
}

fails to compile, both with gcc and g++:

cc     bug.c   -o bug
bug.c: In function `main':
bug.c:4: parse error before "default"
make: *** [bug] Error 1


I can reproduce the problmen on Solaris 8 and GNU/Linux RH 9:

 Solaris: gcc 3.2.2
 RH gcc (GCC) 3.2.2 20030222 (Red Hat Linux 3.2.2-5)

On GNU/Linux RH 8 (gcc version 3.2 20020903 (Red Hat Linux 8.0 3.2-7)) I have
the same.
