source code to reproduce bug

Hi!

When compiling a 'switch' in which a 'case' contains an initialized variable
(see example) Clang does so without complaining. g++ on the other hand produces
an error "jump to case label crosses initialization".

I'm not really sure which is correct. According to this thread
(http://www.velocityreviews.com/forums/t282021-error-jump-to-case-label.html)
and the explanation for it's behavior, g++ is correct.

[code]
switch (a) {
  //...
  case 1:
  int a = 1;
  break;
  case 2:
  //...
}
[/code]

g++ output for attached file:
> clang-bug.cpp: In function ‘int main()’:
> clang-bug.cpp:10: error: jump to case label
> clang-bug.cpp:7: error:   crosses initialization of ‘int a’

clang++ output for attached file:
-
(compiles without error/warning)


My system:
Linux VirtUbuntu 2.6.32-24-generic #38-Ubuntu SMP Mon Jul 5 09:22:14 UTC 2010
i686 GNU/Linux

clang version 2.8 (trunk 109579)
