#97 Crash on bad func ptr typedef

[Lincoln Ramsay]

Reported by Gareth on the Yahoo list.

Basically the line:

typedef Boolean (FormGadgetHandlerType) (struct FormGadgetType
*gadgetP, UInt16 cmd, void *paramP);

was causing the crash.

I changed it to

typedef Boolean (FormGadgetHandlerType*) (struct FormGadgetType
*gadgetP, UInt16 cmd, void *paramP);

and it compiled fine. It was definitely compile time not runtime.
...

My take on this is that this should be a callback declaration but instead of being a function pointer, it's a regular function and this is probably causing havoc. This really shouldn't crash if we can help it.

As far as I'm aware, the original version:
typedef Boolean (FormGadgetHandlerType) (struct FormGadgetType
*gadgetP, UInt16 cmd, void *paramP);

is not legal C. As such, we should return a parser error & bail out.

Definitely shouldn't cause a crash though!

Hopefully not too tough to fix, either way...
