Hmm, this seems to contradict what's documented at the definition of
FLEXIBLE_ARRAY_MEMBER:
/* Define to nothing if C supports flexible array members, and to 1 if it does
not. That way, with a declaration like `struct s { int n; double
d[FLEXIBLE_ARRAY_MEMBER]; };', the struct hack can be used with pre-C99
compilers. When computing the size of such an object, don't use 'sizeof
(struct s)' as it overestimates the size. Use 'offsetof (struct s, d)'
instead. Don't use 'offsetof (struct s, d[0])', as this doesn't work with
MSVC and with C++ compilers. */
