        <pre>The code is as follow:

namespace N {
 extern "C" {
 extern const int foobar;
 const int foobar = 1;
 struct S { static const int foobar; };
 const int S::foobar = 2;
 }
}
int main () { return !(N::foobar + 1 == N::S::foobar); }

clang++ accepts the code, but g++ produces error messages:

conflicting declaration of ‘const int N::S::foobar’ with ‘C’ linkage
      const int S::foobar = 2;
previous declaration with ‘C++’ linkage
      struct S { static const int foobar; };

Indeed, the code comes from a bug report of gcc
(<a href="https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=33786">https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=33786</a>). A previous version of g++
produces a different error message, but was fixed in the latest version. Martin
Sebor analyzed why the above code is ill-formed. Please check this problem.</pre>
