That's the one with the scoping problem, i.e.

	int variable = 1;

	main() {
		int variable = 2;

		{ extern int variable; /* must be the global */
		  printf("%d\n", variable);
		}
	}

prints 2 rather than the correct 1?  Yeah, I sure regret not having the core
team integrate GCC releases seconds after they hit prep...
