I think I found a compiler bug.  The commented line doesn't work, but the following two do.  This doesn't seem right.  Am I missing something here?

class foo
{}

void main()
{
    foo* bar;
    foo blah;
    //bar=&(new foo);
    blah=new foo;
    bar=&blah;

}

Think of it as analogous to:
    bar = &(x + y);
as opposed to:
    blah = (x + y);
    bar = &blah;
