hmm, there isn't really anything to fix. If the compiler can't figure
out that 'list' at this particular place in the code is a variable name,
not a type, it has got a big problem. It's valid code in any case (no
matter whether you compile it as C or C++).

Now whether or not this compiler bug is worth a little work-around
is an entirely different story.
