Hi, Jakub,

Thanks a lot for fixing this issue.

I have several questions in below:

As my understanding, without your current patch, the current 
-fsanitize=bounds-strict behaves like -fstrict-flex-arrays=2, i.e:
it treats:
   [], [0] as flexible array members;
but
   [1], [4] as regular arrays

Then with your current patch, [0] will NOT be treated as flexible array members 
by default anymore, so, the -fsanitize=bounds-strict will
treats:
   [] as flexible array members;
but
   [0], [1], [4] as regular arrays
The same behavior as -fstrict-flex-arrays=3.

Therefore, -fsanitize=bounds-strict already implies -fstrict-flex-arrays=3. 

Is the above understanding correctly?

For [0] arrays, why C++ and C represent with different IR? 

thanks.
