I'm not complaining gcc folks, I just dislike the new behaviour in general,
it's inconsistent.

This is wrong:

x()
{

	switch (1) {
	case 0:
	case 1:
	case 2:
	case 3:
	}
}

and this is right:

x()
{

	switch (1) {
	case 0:
	case 1:
	case 2:
	case 3:
	;
	}
}

Why am I required to put a `;' only in the last case and not in all
the previous ones? Or maybe gcc-latest is forgetting to complain about
the previous ones ;)

Anyway it's a minor issue, if the standard says so we'll live with it.

(and it's also getting offtopic...)
