            Bug ID: 60845
           Summary: print original type for typedef classes in diagnostics
           Product: gcc
           Version: unknown
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: c++
          Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
          Reporter: manu at gcc dot gnu.org

class A { };
typedef A B;
void foo (B &a) {
  a.x();
}

test.cc:4:5: error: ‘B’ has no member named ‘x’
   a.x();
     ^

It would be nicer as:

test.cc:4:5: error: ‘B’ {aka: 'A'} has no member named ‘x’
   a.x();
     ^
