------- Comment #4 from bangerth at dealii dot org  2007-09-08 23:52 -------
The code is definitely invalid. The two typedefs declare two types with
external linkage. This is an ODR violation making the code invalid. The
standard doesn't require compilers to produce an error for a very good
reason: it is almost impossible to detect this without support from a linker
that understands all wrinkles and depths of the C++ language.
