[Bug c/14661] [3.3? Regression] ?: operator result structure's member array can't be assigned to pointer

["reichelt at gcc dot gnu dot org" <gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org>]

------- Additional Comments From reichelt at gcc dot gnu dot org  2004-03-20 02:54 -------
The code used to compile with gcc 2.95.x - 3.0.x, but ICEd with 3.1 - 3.3.1.
Since gcc 3.3.2 the ICE is gone - the code is rejected.

But is the code really invalid?
The code does compile as C++ source or with the option "-std=c99".
It also compiles, if I replace the condition (source == FOREIGN)
with a constant.

Here's a shorter example that demonstrates the problem:

======================================
struct A
{
    char str[1];
};

struct A a = { "" };
struct A b = { "" };

void foo (int i)
{
    char *p = ( i ? a : b ).str;
}
======================================
