Responsible-Changed-Why:
    I tried fixing it, but kept breaking other things. It is
    (sort of) related to parsing (being hidden inside
    grokdeclarator, IIRC) so maybe 'the new parser'
    will make things easier. (one may as well hope).

 Nope, and I hope I can retain my status of the one who "owns" the oldest 
 open report for some time :-)
 
 B.t.w., I bet this is the prototype of at least ten other reports that 
 have been filed over the years. I've seen it quite a number of times, but 
 finding these duplicates would require a more comprehensive audit of the 
 4-500 or so non-closed C++ reports, which probably no-one has the time to 
 do. 
 
 There are certain classes of bugs that appear over and over again, 
 like this one, problems with friends and namespaces, some template 
 problems, etc. Sometimes duplicates are closed with a reference to 
 another one. But in general, it's hard to find a duplicate even if you 
 know that there's one, since I find search facilities in GNATS to be so 
 limited (and also because it is often hard to come up with meaningful 
 search patterns for a certain problem). I guess the only way to cope 
 with that is to check every half a year whether a certain report is still 
 reproducible and by this eventually close duplicates once one 
 representative of this family has been fixed.

 Is this fixed yet?  It's the oldest open bug in gcc's database.
