Hi, a pretty old and minor issue, but it seems easy to fix. When we check for wrong declarations of ::main in grokfndecl we use processing_template_decl to reject ::main as template and we end up wrongly rejecting: template <class T> class Foob { friend int main(); }; (whereas we normally accept: class Fooa { friend int main(); }; ) using the more accurate PROCESSING_REAL_TEMPLATE_DECL_P() correctly does the trick, AFAICS. Tested x86_64-linux. Thanks, Paolo. ////////////////////////// /cp 2012-10-12 Paolo Carlini <paolo.carlini@oracle.com> PR c++/24449 * decl.c (grokfndecl): When checking for ::main declarations use PROCESSING_REAL_TEMPLATE_DECL_P(). /testsuite 2012-10-12 Paolo Carlini <paolo.carlini@oracle.com> PR c++/24449 * g++.dg/parse/friend-main.C: New.
