If you find you need -fno-ms-extensions as well, that's not a bug in the documentation or the testcase, it's a bug in GCC, failing to give a diagnostic for certain code for certain targets even though the standard requires it to do so.

I agree, with -pedantic we should complain about use of MS extensions outside of system headers even if we then proceed to compile the program.
