  To: Jason Merrill, GCC Patches

This patch implements DR2397, which removes the restriction in
[dcl.array]p4 that the array element type may not be a placeholder
type.  We don't need to worry about decltype(auto) here, so this
allows code like

  int a[3];
  auto (*p)[3] = &a;
  auto (&r)[3] = a;

However, note that

  auto (&&r)[2] = { 1, 2 };
  auto arr[2] = { 1, 2 };

still doesn't work (although one day it might) and neither does

  int arr[5];
  auto x[5] = arr;

given that auto deduction is performed in terms of function template
argument deduction, so the array decays to *.

Bootstrapped/regtested on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu.  Does this look OK or
have I missed a case we want to support?

	PR c++/100975
	DR 2397

gcc/cp/ChangeLog:

	* decl.c (create_array_type_for_decl): Allow array of auto.

gcc/testsuite/ChangeLog:

	* g++.dg/cpp0x/auto24.C: Remove dg-error.
	* g++.dg/cpp0x/auto3.C: Adjust dg-error.
	* g++.dg/cpp0x/auto42.C: Likewise.
	* g++.dg/cpp0x/initlist75.C: Likewise.
	* g++.dg/cpp0x/initlist80.C: Likewise.
	* g++.dg/diagnostic/auto1.C: Remove dg-error.
	* g++.dg/cpp23/auto-array.C: New test.
