Subject: declaration specifiers wooziness
Date: Wed, 27 Jun 2007 14:33:20 +0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070627103320.GA11047@localhost.sw.ru> (raw)

sparse silently accepts some peculiar combinations of declaration
specifiers:

"typedef extern;" passes.

"void char a;" errors about void declaration, however,
"extern void char a;" passes. Hey, "extern void a;" passes!

"char short a;" passes too. Ditto for "char float a;" and
"char long a".

"typedef inline a;" passes.

Not sure how many different bugs there are here, though...
