Sorry to bring this one up again, but I have something more than handwaving
to bring to the matter this time. :-)

If this is the current interpretation, then it is not consistent with the
"Semantics" portion of section 3.5 (lines 30-31, p.70), which states

"If an identifier for an object is declared with no linkage, the type
for the object shall be complete by the end of its declarator, or by
the end of its init-declarator if it has an initializer."

So...does this reflect an official change in the standard?
