scope of actual parameters

[David Keppel]

My *impression* is that actual parameter names are local to the
function.  My dpANS-compliant compiler (gcc version 1.34) complains on
the following program:

    typedef int foo;
    m (foo){}

    foo.c: parameter name omitted

If I declare the parameter type, then I get a similar complaint.

    typedef int foo;
    m (foo) int foo; {}

    foo.c: parm types given both in parmlist and separately
    foo.c: parameter name omitted

Is this misbehavior of my compiler, or is this compliant behavior?

Please e-mail, I will summarize.
