The AT&T C compiler (from System V, Release 2?) chokes on a declaration
of the form:

extern int bob(double (*)()) ;

On the other hand, it is accepted by Microsoft C and other C compilers.
The AT&T C++ translator also chokes on this. Is this declaration 
incorrect, or have I been bitten by a compiler bug?
