Compiling the following code:

 1   class a {
 2         // lots of stuff here
 3   } // <--- actual error is here: missing semicolon
 4 
 5
 6   class b {
 7         // lots of stuff here
 8   };


results in

test.cpp:8: error: multiple types in one declaration


making someone who hasn't been exposed to the error message a lot look for a
problem in the wrong class.
