 while we treat it as
 
   ( (int) ( *(int*)((int)p) ) ) = 0
 
 If you really want to keep your code, with the redundant (int) cast, I
 welcome you to fix mcs ;-)

+On further thought, I can't think of any straightforward way for a
+disambiguation rule to parse the code other than how mcs does.  The
+compiler has to _know_ that it's a cast as soon as it sees (int), and
+it doesn't need any further lookahead.  Casts bind tighter than
+assignment.
+
+So, I'm changing this to NOTABUG.
