I showed two other examples which are (were) reproted saying GCC accepted invalid C++ (and the code was valid C and people actually used the second case already in patricte which is why I pointed it out). So if you want to modify the C++ front-end and to make an option, that is fine but GCC should (and does have) a pratice of not accepting new extensions. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=27235
