Is there any way to make an operator method that catches casts to a
function pointer without a typedef?

I've tried this:
struct a {
  int a; int b;
  operator (int(*)(int)) ();
  };

But, it didn't work in gcc v2.8.1 for HP-UX.  Making a typedef works fine,
but I need to know if it is possible without a typedef.
