We weren't checking if the initializer isn't NULL, which caused sparse
to segfault later on when performing lazy evaluation in classify_type().

I think you want expr = NULL here. Otherwise if(expr) will pick up crap.

I would just add two lines after "token =
parse_expression(token->next, &typeof_sym->initializer);"

if (!type->initializer)
        sparse_error(token->pos, "expected expression after the '(' token");

If there is compile error, the sparse should not continue the later
stage any way.

BTW, can you add a validation test case which will trigger the bug?

Thanks

Chris
