$ g++ -c -pedantic testunion.cpp
testunion.cpp:8: error: `struct foo::<anonymous union>::n' invalid; an
anonymous
 union can only have non-static data members


g++ reports an error only in Case 3, regardless of the settings of -pedantic or
-pedantic-errors, but as I understand it all six cases violate the C++
standard.  Accordingly, Comeau and xlc++ reject all six cases in strict mode,
and accept them with warnings in relaxed mode.

This behavior is consistent for at least versions 3.4.4 and 3.3.2.
