That patch seems much more complicated than I expected and I don't see
why most of the changes in it should be needed.  I've applied this
patch (bootstrapped with no regressions on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu)
to fix the testcase I gave in what seems to me to be the natural way.

Perhaps you could post an updated version of your patch to improve
diagnostics for missing semicolons, relative to current trunk?

	* c-parser.c (c_parser_struct_declaration): Handle declaration
	specifiers followed by CPP_CLOSE_BRACE.

	* gcc.dg/struct-semi-4.c: New test.

Yes, I'll commit the c++-compat patch first so that there will be no 
prerequisite.
