>Description:
I've found a possible illegal statement in the C++ compiler as well as the C compiler. I detected the problem first using g++ (C++), but discovered that the same behaviour can be seen using gcc (C).
Self initialization is legal according to the compilers. As I don't have the language reference manual, nor did I find anything on the net, I'm inclined to believe this is a bug. It does not make sense to allow self initialization. At the very least, the compiler should issue a warning. No such warning is issued with -Wall.
Not only did I find this in the Debian gcc 3.2.1 compiler, I also found it in the Debian 2.95.4 20011002 (prerelease) compiler as well as in the OpenBSD 2.95.3 20010125 (prerelease) compiler.
Attached is a single file containing the C++ source for reproducing the error as well as the output from the command "g++-3.2 -Wall -v -save-temps tst.cpp". No preprocessed files are attached as I'm not including any header files.
>How-To-Repeat:
Extract the C++ code from the attached file and compile it using -Wall. No warnings - no errors.
Of course, the variable x contains garbage - verify with std::cout.

C++ Source begins here:
int main(void) {
int x = x;
return 0;
}
Output from g++ -Wall -v -save-temps tst.cpp here:
