------- Comment #4 from bangerth at dealii dot org 2007-03-23 02:37 -------
Without wanting to be a distractor, but can variables of a type that
was declared in an anonymous namespace really have external linkage?
Think of the type being declared in a header file and one .cc file
has the variable declaration/definition and another one an extern
declaration for that variable. Do they refer to the same variable? I
don't think so -- they have the same name, but distinct types, so we
have an ODR violation.
IMHO, variables with a type that comes from an anonymous namespace
can but have internal linkage.
