Global Anonymous Unions Have to be Declared Static

An anonymous union declared in a named namespace or in the global namespace has to be explicitly declared static:

   static union { int num; char *pc; }; //anonymous union in global namespace  namespace NS   {     static union { double d; bool b;}; //anonymous union in a named namespace  }  int main()  {    NS::d = 0.0;    num = 5;    pc = "str";  }
