gcc bug?

Apr 27, 2005

int main() {
    int();    // a temporary int.
    (int());  // a temporary int, in parens.  "parse error" in gcc.
}

This doesn't compile in gcc 3.2 or 3.3, but works fine in Visual Studio and MIPSPro. Compiler bug?

I don't have a gcc 4 to test with. :(

FYI, I managed to compile it on cygwin. The whole thing went without a hitch.

Does [HTML_REMOVED]checked_cast[HTML_REMOVED]?

Wow, that's surprising. Cygwin wasn't a primary platform in gcc 3.
