[Bug c++/37885] New: Accepts invalid CV qualifiers on member function returning function pointer

[witmer at averagesoftware dot org]

GCC accepts the following:

class Object
{
    void (*Funk())() const;
};

const in this context should be a qualifier on a returned
pointer-to-member-function.  Intel and Comeau both reject this code.

The correct form:

class Object
{
    void (*Funk() const)();
};

is correctly accepted by GCC.
