bug#10932: 23.4; imenu fails on c functions with pointers to function parameters

[Chris Hecker]

This bug report will be sent to the Free Software Foundation,
not to your local site managers!
Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

Your report will be posted to the bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org mailing list
and the gnu.emacs.bug news group, and at http://debbugs.gnu.org.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug.  If you can, give
a recipe starting from `emacs -Q':

imenu fails to find the Bar function in the following file, it only
finds Foo

--- func.cpp ---
void Foo( void )
{

}

void Bar( char const* q, void* p, bool (*f)( void ) )
{

}
--- func.cpp ---

Thanks for emacs, I love it!

If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger,
please include the output from the following gdb commands:
    `bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
For information about debugging Emacs, please read the file
c:/apps/emacs/emacs-23.4/etc/DEBUG.

bug#10932: Bug #10932: 23.4; imenu fails on c functions with pointers to function parameters

[Noam Postavsky]

Version: 24.3

I see the problem in 23.4, but not in 24.3, so it seems to have been
fixed sometime in between.

Yes.  More precisely, in what is now commit

not closing the bug.
