[Bug libc/762] New: error: redefinition of 'struct ia64_fpreg'

["grigory dot zagorodnev at intel dot com" <sourceware-bugzilla at sources dot redhat dot com>]

Starting Nov 2003, glibc provides own definition of ia64_fpreg structure in the 
header file 'sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/ia64/bits/sigcontext.h', duplicating same 
structure definition in the kernel header 'include/asm-ia64/fpu.h'

Thus GCC compiler reports redefinition of `struct ia64_fpreg' on the following 
simple case:

$ cat test1.c
#include <asm/fpu.h>
#include <signal.h>

$ gcc -c -O0 -g test1.c 
In file included from /usr/include/signal.h:326,
                 from test1.c:2:
/usr/include/bits/sigcontext.h:30: error: redefinition of `struct ia64_fpreg'

Older version of bits/sigcontext.h imports ia64_fpreg structure definition from 
asm/fpu.h, avoiding the conflict. 

Search over the documentation gave nothing about restricted use of this pair of 
header files, so it seems to be a bug.
