scoping issue

[Jason_Haynberg <haynberg@xxxxxxx>]

This strikes me as a bug.  What do you think?  It seems the first program should get the same error as the second?

$ cat t.cpp
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

main()
{
   for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
      cout << i << endl;
      double i = 10.0;
      cout << i << endl;
   }
}

$ g++ t.cpp

$ a.out
0
10

10

$ cat t.cpp
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

main()
{
      int i = 0;
      cout << i << endl;
      double i = 10.0;
      cout << i << endl;
}

$ g++ t.cpp
t.cpp: In function `int main()':
t.cpp:9: conflicting types for `double i'
t.cpp:7: previous declaration as `int i'
