GCC 2.3.3, cp-decl.c: changed `vtbl_type_node' (includes fix)

#1173

The type of virtual function tables is declared to be

	(void *)[]

in cp-decl.c, init_decl_processing().  Since the type of vtable
entries is not `void *', it'd be better to use the type

	vtable_entry_type[]

for vtables instead.

I needed to change the type of vtables for our implementation of
signatures for C++, since I need to access vtables without knowing
their exact type.  The fix should not cause any problems.

Here's the ChangeLog entry:

Sun Dec 27 02:57:35 1992  Gerald Baumgartner  (gb at cs.purdue.edu)

	* cp-decl.c (vtbl_type_node): Changed comment.
	(init_decl_processing): Changed `vtbl_type_node' to type
	`vtbl_entry_type[]' instead of `(void *)[]'.  Moved initialization
	of `vtbl_mask' and `vtbl_type_node' after initialization of
	`vtbl_entry_type.'

The patch for cp-decl.c, GCC 2.3.3, is below.
