Pointer in type statement doesn't work

[alex-s168]

Describe the bug

When I use the "type" statement to define a type that is a reference to a struct, it "ignores" the reference.

Reproduction Steps

V code:

#include "test.h"

struct C.atype {}

type BType = &C.atype

test.h:

struct atype;

Expected Behavior

The generated C code looking like this:

typedef struct atype *main__BType;

Current Behavior

The generated C code looks like this:

typedef struct atype main__BType;

Possible Solution
