           Summary: ImportC: function not decaying to pointer to function
                    in return statement.

The following C code fails to compile:

typedef int(*cmp)(int, int);

int icmp(int a, int b){
    return a < b ? -1 : b < a? 1 : 0;
}

cmp getcmp(void){
    cmp c;
    c = icmp; // ok
    c = &icmp; // ok
    if(0)
        return c; // ok
    if(0)
        return &icmp; // ok
    return icmp; // Error: cannot implicitly convert expression `icmp` of type
`extern (C) int(int a, int b)` to `extern (C) int function(int, int)`
}
