             Bug #: 14809
           Summary: bad error message on invalid ::
           Product: clang
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P
         Component: C++
        AssignedTo: unassignedclangbugs at nondot.org
        ReportedBy: rafael.espindola at gmail.com
                CC: dgregor at apple.com, llvmbugs at cs.uiuc.edu
    Classification: Unclassified


As an extension (as far as I can tell) gcc accepts 

enum foo {x, y};
foo f();
class A {
  friend foo ::f();
};

we say:

/test.ii:4:16: error: C++ requires a type specifier for all declarations
  friend foo ::f();
  ~~~~~~       ^

It would be awesome to suggest () around ::f().
