I think this is the same as http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=52277 .

No, this is a bit more complex than a simple spell-checker.

(Although the bang::foobar is probably easy to implement).

This is a rather unhelpful bug report. For anybody else wondering what the OP
is actually saying: the commented-out errors in the original report show
clang's output, and the request is that GCC should do something similar.
