Cool, thanks.

You are missing a closing parenthesis in there, on the line with
DECL_NAMESPACE_STD_P. I hadn't dared modify DECL_CONTEXT(decl) because I
was afraid of side effects.
For instance, in:
namespace std { struct tm {}; }
//void f(std::tm){}
void g(tm){}
uncommenting the middle line turns the error message from:
e.cc:3:10: error: variable or field 'g' declared void
e.cc:3:8: error: 'tm' was not declared in this scope
e.cc:3:8: note: suggested alternative:
e.cc:1:24: note: 'std::tm'
to:
e.cc:3:10: error: variable or field 'g' declared void
e.cc:3:8: error: 'tm' was not declared in this scope
e.cc:3:8: note: suggested alternative:
e.cc:1:24: note: 'tm'
It also breaks argument-dependent lookup:
namespace std { struct tm {}; void h(tm){} }
void g(std::tm x){ h(x); }
On the other hand, there probably isn't much ADL going on with these 4
types...
It might be less invasive to have decl_mangling_context return
global_namespace without actually modifying the expr?
(as already mentioned, I don't know much about gcc internals, I am just
commenting from my experience writing the previous draft patch)
