As for the porting concern, I think it falls into "comprehensive > diagnostics" selling point you mentioned earlier, which I totally agree with. The current discussion on the GCC issue is to diagnose by default in C++ mode and add `-Wvla` to `-Wall` in GNU++ mode, which perhaps is a nice compromise. I'm waiting to see if any further discussion happens on that issue, but if folks have opinions on that approach, I'd love to hear them.
