test case file

The following TC present in gcc testsuite
(<a href="https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=31775">https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=31775</a>) fails in clang where as it
is successful when compiled using g++ :

extern "C" void abort();
extern int *p;
int main()
{
  extern int i;
  i = 1;
  *p = 2;
  if (i == 2)
    abort ();
  return 0;
}

static int i;
int *p = &i;

when compiled using clang the following errors are thrown: 

nested-extern-1.C:16:12: error: static declaration of 'i' follows non-static
declaration
static int i;
           ^
nested-extern-1.C:8:14: note: previous definition is here
  extern int i;
             ^
nested-extern-1.C:17:11: error: use of undeclared identifier 'i'
int *p = &i;

So wanted to know whether this is correct behaviour that clang is giving or do
we need to replicate what gcc is doing?</pre>
