>Description:
  void g(void) { }
  typeof(g) x;

can be used to declare a variable of type function, that can be subsequently called (calls the address of the variable, not its content...)

Note that presumably
  typeof(g) *y;
should be accepted...
>How-To-Repeat:
Compile the following source with -S:

void g(void) { }

typeof(g) x;

void f(void) {
  x();
}
