 Hi again,
 
 sorry, I wasn't aware that "typedef A = 0;" is a valid gcc extension.
 So, your code was in fact valid (although only for gcc) and the bug is an
 ice-on-legal-code for 3.1.x, 3.2 and the main trunk (3.3 20020816).
 Because it's a regression, it should be marked high priority.
 
 BTW, for the code "typedef A = 0;" the error message is
 
 bug.c:1: Internal compiler error in make_decl_rtl, at varasm.c:839
 Please submit a full bug report, [etc.]
 
 For "void foo () { typedef A = 0; }" I get
 
 bug.c:1: Internal compiler error in gen_typedef_die, at dwarf2out.c:11035
 Please submit a full bug report, [etc.]
 
 instead (if I compile the code with "-g" enabled).
 
 Greetings,
 Volker Reichelt
