In most cases, this is actually safe, and I don't feel comfortable saying it's 
unreasonable for code to rely on that.  This warning should only fire when the 
base subobject is in a virtual base or at a nonzero static offset.

You can use a CXXBasePaths object with Sema::IsDerivedFrom in order to 
determine the subobject access path.
