Actually, I don't have a test case. I was only able to make it fail
when I moved <netinet/in.h> out of /usr/include -- which disables the
gcc kludge. I hope that Archie will be able to come up with a test
case that demonstrates the failure.
BTW, Archie, there are 3 places in the gcc code which can produce that
diagnostic: 1 in "cp/class.c" and 2 in "cp/decl.c". Search for "with
same name as" and you'll find them. It would be useful to find out
which one of those is the culprit in your failing case.

I can't argue with that. I don't like my "solution" very much either.
