Hi,
I still had 2.95 on my machine (Debian). Results are:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ gcc-2.95 --version
2.95.4
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ gcc-2.95 --std=c99 -pedantic -Wall -W -ofoo foo.c
cc1: unknown C standard `c99'
foo.c:5: field `b' has incomplete type
foo.c: In function `main':
foo.c:20: warning: unknown conversion type character `z' in format
foo.c:20: warning: unknown conversion type character `z' in format
foo.c:20: warning: unknown conversion type character `z' in format
foo.c:20: warning: too many arguments for format
Kind regards,
Martijn

This is not true under C99. If an array[] is the last member of a
struct (which is what we are, AFAIK, talking about), then sizeof that

size were zero (but the struct cannot be used in an automatic context).
Ahh, thanks. Mea culpa, I thought it was illegal in general. In that case,
the only reason not to use [] is that older gcc's don't like it, but even
that version cut-off may be old enough to not matter.
Anybody know? gcc-2.95 is still considered production at least for the
kernel. I don't have it available to test whether it understands []
though.
