[Moderator's note: this defect report has been
 forwarded to the C++ committee. -moderator.]

In article <p2E_7.8629$cD4.15700@www.newsranger.com>, Michiel Salters said
(but forgot the right subject format)

8.3.5/2 [dcl.fct] restricts the use of void as parameter type, but does not
mention CV qualified versions. Since void f(volatile void) isn't a callable
function anyway, 8.3.5 should also ban cv-qualified versions.
(BTW, this follows C)

A possible resolution would be to add (cv-qualified) before void in
"The parameter list (void) is equivalent to the empty parameter list. Except
for this special case, <INSERT>(cv-qualified) </INSERT> void shall not be a
parameter type (though types derived from void, such as void*, can)."
