Hi, Martin,

I didn’t go through all the details of your patch.

But I have one question:

Did you consider the effect of the option -fstrict-flex-array 
(https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-14.2.0/gcc/C-Dialect-Options.html#index-fstrict-flex-arrays)
 on how gcc treats the zero size trailing array, 1-element trailing array as 
flexible array member in the patch? 

thanks.
