Sorry to have to post this, it's a fairly trivial question I know, but I
don't have a copy of the proposed ANSI spec.

Put simply, does the upcoming standard intend to enforce (or warn about)
mixing 'typedef'-ed types even if the fundamental items 'beneath' the typedefs
are the same?

Specifically, if you have the following:

void fred(long *);

typedef long funny_t;

main()
{
	funny_t a;

	fred(&a);
	....
}

..will the compilers barf, or produce a warning or what?
Obviously, the code itself is perfectly runnable, and portable, as long as
the typedef of 'funny' continues to be a 'long'.

I'd like to see a warning here - am I alone?
Am I going to be dissapointed?
Thanks in advance.

Please E-mail, I'll summarise.
