any NetBSD target for any relase other than -current.  Any release of GCC with the new C++ parser.
>Description:
The new C++ parser rejects the (invalid) construct

  extern "C" {
    // decls
  };  // Bogus semicolon

But this is the way that __END_DECLS in sys/cdefs.h is defined on existing NetBSD installations.  (Current has now been fixed.)
>How-To-Repeat:
Try to build any C++ program that includes stdio.h with the new compiler on NetBSD
>Fix:
Add a fixincludes rule to fix this case up.  The file is sys/cdefs.h and the macro __END_DECLS is defined to '};' rather than just '}'

Note that the definition of __END_DECLS as an empty define must not be affected; this is needed for C.

State-Changed-Why:
    I've raised this to high.  It's effectively a regression by the trunk compiler.
