int main()
{
    static void (*fp)() = &func;
    fp();
    return 0;
}
void func() {}

This will crash the compiler (v. 0.35).
Is this a known bug? Isn't this code correct?

Defiantly a complier bug. I tested the same code. Anyhow, is static talking about the function pointer or the type of function (ie static function)?

It is definitely a bug, and it is even worse: the compiler crashes every time a function pointer is found where a constant expression is expected - which includes initializers for global and static variables.
