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

The example in Section 8.3.5 [dcl.fct] paragraph 9 (page 137) of the standard states.

int i,
*pi,
f(),
*fpi(int),
(*pif)(const char*, const char*);
(*fpif(int))(int);

    a function fpif taking an integer argument and returning a pointer to a
function that takes an integer argument and returns an integer.


I believe that the first semicolon should be a comma.  As written, the sixth
line    (*fpif(int))(int);    does not appear to specify a return type.
