Subject: [cocci] Same identifier for type and variable

Thanks for all your work with Coccinelle.

It seems that using the same identifier for an inferred typedef and variable name confuses the parsing heuristics. For example, spatch --parse-c fails with both this:

    typedef int type1;
    typedef int type2;

    void bar (type2 *type1)
    {
        if (type1 != 0) {
        }
    }

and this:

    void foo()
    {
        type1 x;
    }

    void bar (type2 *type1)
    {
        if (type1 != 0) {
        }
    }

Are there any workarounds for this?

Thanks,

Simon
