[Bug c/44854] New: Improve diagnostic for missing member name or ';' in a struct

[pzhao at gcc dot gnu dot org]

Testcase:
struct foo { int };

gcc-4.6:
test.c:1:18: error: expected identifier or ‘(’ before ‘}’ token
test.c:1:18: error: expected specifier-qualifier-list at end of input

clang:
test.c:1:18: error: expected member name or ';' after declaration specifiers
struct foo { int };
             ~~~ ^

Clang knows what you mean and the diagnostic message is better.
