void
f (int dummy1, struct { int flag; } *x, int dummy2)
    {
    x->flag = 0 ;
    }

/*
The above code fails to compile, with the following message:
"bug.c", line 4: error:  x is undefined

The following three ways all "fix" the bug:

	1) remove "dummy1" from the function call
	2) remove "dummy2" from the function call
	3) declare the structure ahead of time with a tag,
	   and use the tag to declare x
