[Bug objc/18971] New: Can't send messages to methods with arrays as parameters

[alexander at malmberg dot org]

Mainline currently complains:

error: incompatible type for argument 1 of 'test2:'

when you try to send a message to a method with an array argument; i.e. the type
of one of the method's arguments is an array; e.g.:

@implementation Test
-(void) test2: (int [5])a
...

The testcase should make it clear.

Forgot to mention this:

The testcase compiles ok with gcc "2.95.4 20011002 (Debian prerelease)", "3.2.3
(Debian)", "3.4.2 (Debian 3.4.2-2)", and a mainline snapshot of 2004-09-02.

Confirmed, the earliest mainline compiler which I have is 20041019 where it does not work.
