We were crashing in finish_expr_stmt here:
676 /* If we ran into a problem, make sure we complained. */
677 gcc_assert (expr != error_mark_node || seen_error ());
Well, we ran into a problem, but never raised an error. The problem was that
we couldn't determine the max index of the array when default-initizalizing the
members (at the beginning of cp_parser_ctor_initializer_opt). Jason's
preference seems to be to disable initialization of a flexible array member in
a constructor and that is what this patch attempts to do.
Bootstrapped/regtested on x86_64-linux, ok for trunk?
