This chunk of code also produces what appears to be a bogus error
message.  Are methods allowed to be extern?

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Check that a class method may be declared to be extern

#include "testinc.h"

class c {
public:
	extern void method1 ();
};

int test ()
{
	c c_object;

	c_object.method1 ();
	return 0;
}

extern void c::method1 ()
{
}
