That depends. ;-) You're right, it is not ISO C90, but it is in the C99 standard which is now close to ten years old.
% gcc -pedantic x.c -c -o x -std=c99 % gcc -pedantic x.c -c -o x -std=c89 x.c:3: warning: ISO C90 does not support flexible array members % gcc -pedantic x.c -c -o x x.c:3: warning: ISO C90 does not support flexible array members
Which compiler that we care about doesn't support this C99 feature?
That said, if you don't want to take the original patch, can we take the one below?
Thanks, Gerald
ChangeLog: Use 4*sizeof(WORD) instead of the magic constant 8 for THUNKS.thunks, and explain why we cannot use an open array type THUNKS.thunks[].

We don't use C99 features in Wine.
That said, if you don't want to take the original patch, can we take the one below?
I don't think that's an improvement, thunks are not really words, they are code.

Actually we do.

"inline" is pretty similar to flexible array members in that both were not in C90, both are in C99, and both have been GNU extensions before C99, so I'm not sure why we use one but not the other.

I know, but in the current code we do have WORD thunks[4] and later on we twice relyy on the magic constant 8 which comes from that (4*sizeof WORD).
Honestly, I'd hope my patch makes this code easier to grasp.
It certainly would have helped *me* when first looking at this code! ;-)

inline is automatically disabled if the compiler doesn't support it.

That syntax is not portable.
We have the ANYSIZE_ARRAY macro in include/winnt.h for this exact purpose.
