// cfront 2.0 bug 900217_01

// Cfront fails to be able to cope with the case where the name of an
// enumeration type is used to specify the type of a member function
// parameter if (and when) the name of the enum type is also used to
// declare a data member of the containing class.

// The (new) rules regarding the overloading of names for both objects and
// types do (I believe) make the following code legal.

// g++ deals with the following code without complaint.

// This code is also accepted by cfront if the typename `enum0' in both
// parameter lists is preceeded by the word `enum'.

enum enum0 {
  enum0_value_0,
  enum0_value_1
};

class class0 {
  int enum0;
public:
  void member_function (enum0 e);	// gets bogus (cascading) errors
};

void class0::member_function (enum0 e)
{
}

int main () { return 0; }
