The comment says fndecl must be a FUNCTION_DECL (by the way, function
prototypes were standardized twenty years ago, it's OK to use them).

Now you're calling it with T which is not a FUNCTION_DECL.

With all respect, you can answer this sort of question faster with a
little bit of debugging than you can by sending to a mailing list.
