With the latest draft N3854, the paper N3722 has been accepted so the wording
is now:
> The initializer for an array shall be: an expression that after generic
> replacement and removal of all enclosing balanced parentheses is a string
> literal; such an expression enclosed in braces; or, a brace-enclosed list
> of initializers for the elements.
Section 6.7.11 "Initialization" Paragraph 7 N3854
Which is clearly intending to allow for parentheses and _Generic to be used.
Can this bug be reopened?
