            Bug ID: 61162
           Summary: possibly bad error location with -Wc++-compat
           Product: gcc
           Version: unknown
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: c
          Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
          Reporter: tromey at gcc dot gnu.org

Consider this source:

enum e { ZERO = 0, ONE };

enum e e_val;

void f(void)
{
  e_val = 0;
}


Compile with -Wc++-compat:

bapiya. gcc -Wc++-compat --syntax-only r.c
r.c: In function ‘f’:
r.c:7:3: warning: enum conversion in assignment is invalid in C++
[-Wc++-compat]
   e_val = 0;
   ^


I think perhaps using the location of the "=" would be preferable.
