--- Comment #5 from Martin Sebor <msebor at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
Right, the code is invalid according to the C rules. It's accepted by the C
front end with a pedantic warning. It's intentionally rejected by the C++
front-end which supports fewer of the GCC extensions. The zero-length array
extension can be used in this context instead, though accessing elements of the
zero-length array may be diagnosed. (In both cases, GCC assumes that the array
doesn't overlap other members so accesses to its elements are undefined.)
