Does it have the same meaning, or is there something more subtle
going on? We don't accept all valid C code, for example
int foo(void)
is allowed in C but not in Cython.

I needed to remove the dependancy the parser had on knowing all type
names, so in some places it needs to look ahead to determine if it's
looking at a type or an expression. If this is the only bug
introduced, than I'm willing to accept that, but are there other
statements that are now illegal?
