Gcc already contains useful warnings for almost certainly incorrect code. I
propose adding a warning when pointer arithmetic is used inside sizeof, that
degrades an array to a pointer.
char a[]="blabla";
sizeof(a-1);
If the intention was _actually_ to get sizeof(char), it is a really awful way
to do so. Instead, it is very likely a typo.
Hence i suggest adding a warning.
thanks.
