[Bug c/28921] vector of a typedef applies the vector to the inner most type instead of erroring/warning out that vector does not apply

[pinskia at gcc dot gnu dot org]

------- Comment #2 from pinskia at gcc dot gnu dot org  2006-09-01 06:51 -------
The same thing happens with arrays:
typedef char cptr[2];
__attribute__ ((vector_size(16))) cptr t;
------------------------------------------
And pointer to arrays:
typedef char cptr[1];
typedef cptr *cptr1;

extern __attribute__ ((vector_size(16))) cptr1 t;
-------------
This has been a bug since the begining of the vector_size attribute.
