If you do that, then you might end up accpeting two different
declarations as same where the token-oriented scheme (ODR) would have
kept them separate.  That is, you would not be able to differentiate

tu1.C:

  struct B { operator typeof(int(*)())(); };

from

tu2.C:

  struct B { typedef int (*foo)(); operator foo(); };

ODR says they are different.
