Bug Description

Binary package hint: pmccabe

As I reported here:
http://lists.parisc-linux.org/pipermail/pmccabe/2009/000006.html

"I ran into an infinite loop in pmccabe when parsing some source code I'm
working on. The smallest example that will cause the hang is this:

const struct a::x* foo;

I've attached a patch that fixes the problem, along with an automated test, and
have done a regression test both on my sources here and with scummvm. I also
ran it under valgrind and didn't see any new issues introduced."
