Hi! The C and C++ FEs handle zero sized arrays differently, C uses NULL TYPE_MAX_VALUE on non-NULL TYPE_DOMAIN on complete ARRAY_TYPEs with bitsize_zero_node TYPE_SIZE, while C++ FE likes to set TYPE_MAX_VALUE to the largest value (and min to the lowest).
Martin has used array_type_nelts in get_parm_array_spec where the function on the C form of [0] arrays returns error_mark_node and the code crashes soon afterwards. The following patch teaches array_type_nelts about this (e.g. dwarf2out already handles that as [0]). While it will change what is_empty_type returns for certain types (e.g. struct S { int a[0]; };), as those types occupy zero bits in C, it should make an ABI difference. So, the tree.c change makes the c-decl.c code handle the [0] arrays like any other constant extents, and the c-decl.c change just makes sure that if we'd run into error_mark_node e.g. from the VLA expressions, we don't crash on those.
