Subject: 24.1.1; cc-mode cannot recognize function prototypes returning a pointer

I can confirm this bug, but with function prototypes, like this :

SDL_Surface* displayInit(void);

int* stuff(someStuff); works fine.

If i write "SDL_Surface* displayInit(void);", then erase the ';' and 
replace it by '{', then erase the '{' and re-replace it by ';', the 
coloration will work fine whatever i do next...
