	I never really used typedef much, and was pretty suprised at a
limitation in it. When I tried this sort of declaration, I got a whole
bunch of errors :

typedef struct
{
	newtyp *member;
}       newtyp;

I finally had to do something along these lines

typedef struct stupid
{
	struct stupid  *member;
}       newtyp;

	Any ideas why the compiler can't figure out the original entry?
