Bug#131399: gcc-3.0: Initialization of flexible char array member sefgaults

[Falk Hueffner <falk@debian.org>]

Package: gcc-3.0
Version: 1:3.0.3-1
Severity: normal

Hi,

falk@borkum:~% cat bug.c 
struct descr {
    int len;
    char data[];
};
int foo() {
    struct descr s1 = { 3, "FOO" };
}
falk@borkum:~% /usr/bin/gcc-3.0 bug.c
bug.c: In function `foo':
bug.c:6: Internal error: Segmentation fault
Please submit a full bug report,
with preprocessed source if appropriate.
See <URL:http://www.gnu.org/software/gcc/bugs.html> for instructions.

I'm not entirely sure if the code is standard compliant (I've no copy
of the standard). In any case, gcc shouldn't segfault.

	Falk
